The Computer Science Research Open House was a chance for faculty to share their research experiences with the larger computing community at UH and with industry partners. The event provided a forum for students, faculty, and the community to discuss cutting-edge research topics and to examine the connection between research and application.

The Open House included three formal talks: State of the Department by Dr. Jaspal Subhlok, Department Chair; Living in a World without Passwords by Dr. Ioannis Kakadiaris, Hugh Roy and Lillie Cranz Cullen University Professor of Computer Science; and Engine of the Power House by Dr. Larry Shi.

The talks were followed by poster and demonstration sessions by the department.
