#00035  Social web bot for healthcare
  Mentor:  Ashwin Ram School:  Interactive Computing
 Finding precise information from search engines on personal issues (such as healthcare) is a time-consuming and painful process. There is too much of information on the web, and search engines are not good at zeroing in on specific information needed for your particular issue. User groups and forums are being replaced by interactive social applications like facebook, linkedin and twitter to find a...

#00036  Building a Strategy Game for a Game AI application
  Mentor:  Ashwin Ram School:  Interactive Computing
 The project will involve creating a simple strategy game that can be played online using Java JNLP. The purpose of the project is to create an application domain for an Artificial Intelligence system called D2 able to learn how to play strategy games by observing humans play. The project will involve understanding the API of D2, design a simple strategy game (such as a simple version of Risk, or s...

#00028  Modeling and Analysis for Military Acquisition Reform
  Mentor:  Doug Bodner School:  Other
 Military acquisition conceptualizes, designs, develops, deploys and supports systems for the U.S. military (e.g., airplanes, ships, unmanned aerial systems, etc.). Despite numerous attempts at reform, systems are often delayed and over-budget. One difficulty is the multi-stakeholder nature of the acquisition enterprise (e.g., military services, defense contractors, government, taxpayers). Given...
