Computing Professor Explores Mixed-Reality Cure for Zoom Fatigue
Wednesday, September 29, 2021
Looking to reduce the stress that confronts people who videoconference too much — widely known as Zoom fatigue, following the work-from-home trend of the COVID pandemic — one expert from NJIT is working on new approaches to augmented and virtual reality systems. Associate Professor Jacob Chakareski said his research was inspired by his own less-than-ideal experiences in switching to remote lecturing in spring 2020, along with the experiences of co-principal investigators Ramesh Sitaraman and Michael Zink of the University of Massachusetts-Amherst, plus Klara Nahrstedt of the University of...
NJIT Tops National Ranking For Computer Programming
Wednesday, September 1, 2021
New Jersey Institute of Technology leads U.S. universities in teaching programming languages, according to a new survey by HackerRank, which sells products to help human resources departments evaluate software developers. NJIT's Ying Wu College of Computing prepares students to program in Python, Java, JavaScript and the REST application programming interface for web services, better than other top performers including those close to New Jersey, such as Columbia University and Rochester Institute of Technology, the survey found. “HackerRank confirms what we already know,” said Craig...
NSF Continues Funding NJIT's Future Defenders of Government Computing
Tuesday, August 24, 2021
NJIT this month won its second grant from the National Science Foundation's CyberCorps Scholarship for Service program, in which students studying toward master's degrees receive up to three years of free tuition and generous stipends, in exchange for working at government cybersecurity jobs after graduation. During the first grant, which provided $4 million from 2016-2021, Ying Wu College of Computing accepted 33 students through its Secure Computing Initiative. All of them landed jobs protecting government computer systems in a range of local, state and federal organizations,...
New Diagnosis Tools Will Help Protect Data in Event-Based Applications
Wednesday, August 4, 2021
Software behaving badly, especially when it corrupts, exposes or loses someone's data, is the motivation for new research from NJIT Prof. Iulian Neamtiu on how event-based applications go astray and what can be done to fix them. Such applications are often found in smartphones, websites and Internet-connected home products, which rely on expected results from their middleware and operating systems — but sometimes the results are unexpected, causing anything from simple annoyances to catastrophic errors. To help understand and solve these problems, Neamtiu is sharing a four-year, $1.2...
Amazon Buys Wickr, A Secure Messaging App Founded by NJIT Alumni, Faculty
Friday, July 23, 2021
Online commerce giant Amazon recently acquired Wickr, a secure messaging company founded at NJIT in 2011 that's known for its focus on corporate and military customers, and will integrate the technology into its Amazon Web Services portfolio. Wickr's Highlander roots run deep, as most of its early employees are affiliated with Ying Wu College of Computing, including co-founder, alumnus, and senior university lecturer Robert Statica, adjunct instructor Chris Howell and alumna Kara Coppa. "Wickr is a product of Newark and New Jersey," said Statica, a senior university lecturer in...
NJIT Researchers Evaluate Online Harassment of Marginalized Live-Streamers
Friday, July 2, 2021
Developers of live-streaming software could help block online harassment of women and LGBTQ people, based on new research from NJIT's informatics department where students and faculty studied the common types of harassment and interviewed 25 streamers to understand coping strategies. The most common types of harassment include body shaming, condescending, hate speech, sexual comments and stalking, while the most common coping mechanisms include automated moderation, emotion management, humor and therapy, explained computer science major Jira Uttarapong, who anticipates graduating in 2022....
Graduate Certificates Enable Easy Transition into Computing M.S. Programs
Wednesday, June 30, 2021
With computing playing an ever-increasing role in how companies operate, and the high demand for skilled computing professionals, people with no previous college or work experience in computing are applying to Ying Wu College of Computing (YWCC) to pursue graduate degree in one of the college’s M.S. programs. Thanks to its several graduate certificate programs, YWCC students new to academic coursework in computing are able to acquire the core skills and experience that they will need to be successful in their chosen M.S. degree program. When Roberto Rivera, a Senior Research Analyst at...
Design Professor Embraces AI to Quantify Accessibility of Buildings
Thursday, June 10, 2021
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but walkability could be evaluated by algorithms, according to new research from an unconventional professor in NJIT's Hillier College of Architecture and Design. "Most people assume that architects have some tool to visualize or analyze how people will use the building. It's not true, they don't," explained Assistant Professor Mathew Schwartz. Architects might anticipate walking paths, guess natural routes based on experience, or quiz the future occupants about their intentions, but the idea of using software to calculate the physiological metrics...
College of Computing Creates New Department of Data Science
Thursday, June 10, 2021
Building on existing academic and research strengths, NJIT's Ying Wu College of Computing has created a new Department of Data Science where students will learn the deep underlying technologies driving this field and its broad spectrum of applications. The college has taken significant steps in recent years to position itself as a leader in data science education and research. It already offers an M.S. in Data Science, as well as graduate-level certificate programs in Big Data, Data Visualization and Data Mining. Starting in the Fall 2021 semester, the college will offer a B...
Computing Professor Develops Algorithms to Design Faster Computer Circuits
Friday, May 28, 2021
Research conducted by Ioannis Koutis, associate professor of computer science at NJIT, may change how manufacturers think about logic circuit design and increasing circuit processing speeds compared to state-of-the-art methods. When a manufacturer designs a logic circuit, it is necessary, particularly as circuits become larger, to partition the circuit into smaller pieces to accommodate space constraints on the physical circuit. Using graph partitioning algorithms, manufacturers divide a circuit into two or more roughly equal-sized parts. A critical consideration during this process is how...
