CSL Projects for HaifaU

Some of the CSL (Computer Systems Lab) projects are also offered as a joint course with Haifa university, as course TBD. These projects are NOT a lab, they are research projects: a chance for an undergrad student to take part in an ongoing research with interesting results. For grad students, it is a chance to have a taste of a research direction. Or just an interesting way to earn academic points doing real research.

As such, registration is manual - the contact point for each project is listed below. To register to any of these projects, the student(s) need to pass an interview with the contact point. For RaaS projects, please read the RaaS paper prior to the interview.

The projects are done in groups of 1-2 students by default, but there are two exceptions: project 3 contains many unrelated sub-projects. Project 5 is a competitive project: the students can and should collaborate on systems research issues, but they should keep their cards close to their hearts in game-theory related issues.

All of the RaaS projects are based on the RaaS paper. Some of them require the Ginseng paper as well. Please read them prior to the interview, focusing on parts that are relevant to your project of interest.
