The SessionThe poster session was be an opportunity for students to present their latest research results and methodologies to a wide conference audience and to network at the same time. This year, the posters Competition was also part of the ACM Student Research Competition (SRC). The top posters (1st, 2nd, & 3rd place) in the graduate and undergraduate student categories will advance to the ACM (SRC) Grand Finals and recognition at the prestigious ACM Awards banquet. The poster competition took place in three stages. First, posters were submitted in any area of computer and computational science relevant to the Tapia Conference. Acceptance decisions were based on the relevance and importance of the problem, the correctness and contribution of the results reported, and the clarity of the presentation. The second stage was the poster session. Each accepted poster was assigned to a bulletin board, where each author displayed non-electronic visual aids (e.g. printed material) related to the research. These posters remained up for the duration of the conference. On Monday evening, October 15, the authors presented their posters in a reception attended by conference attendees and judges. The judges had the opportunity to view the posters and question the entrants regarding their work. They then selected the top five posters in the graduate and undergraduate categories as semi-finalists to advance to the third stage. Finally, each semi-finalist gave a 10 minute oral presentation of their work at a special conference session on Tuesday, October 16. Based on these presentations, the judges selected three graduates and three undergraduates as winners of the competition. First, second, and third place winners in each category received checks for $1000, $500, and $250 respectively. They were also entered into the ACM Grand Finals for the Student Research Competition to be held online. Click here for a list of all of the accepted posters.
