I’ll cover a variety of areas, focus on some of the most interesting and important papers in each one, and I’ll try to explain them to a general computer science audience without specialist background. Because most of these are available online, many of them without cost, readers can consult the original paper for more information if they’re interested.

My primary motivation in writing this is to learn more about the topics I write about and get used to reading papers regularly, in preparation for starting my Ph.D. program at University of California, Berkeley this fall. I welcome your comments or corrections on any of my posts and hope the information dissemination will help research to reach a larger audience and encourage collaboration between fields.

The name change to Papers in Computer Science reflects that my original idea (posting daily) was overambitious for the detailed type of post that I prefer to write. Instead, I’m going for updates 3 times a week.

Now that that’s out of the way, on to the first paper!
