The spring semester is over, and I’ve learned some new things. What I learned in privacy class was that privacy enhancing technologies are complicated, and often can’t offer any official assurance. In advanced coding theory class I learned a whole new set of analysis techniques, and understand better what makes up the modern coding schemes.

• Aimstalker (privacy project) – data-mining the aim network
• Coding Theory and Sudoku (coding theory project) – modifying the Sudoku puzzle problem to create LDPC codes, and constructing Sudoku puzzles with random checks.

Finally, I’ll be in Berkeley, CA all summer working at ICIR.
