After scattering to homes across the country and around the world this spring, a growing group of Princeton students have used video conferencing not only to continue coursework and keep up social connections, but also to support the learning and development of younger students in the tri-state area.

What do we mean by the word beautiful? It depends not only on whom you ask, but in what language you ask them. According to a machine learning analysis of dozens of languages conducted at Princeton University, the meaning of words does not necessarily refer to an intrinsic, essential constant. Instead, it is significantly shaped by culture, history and geography.

Olga Russakovsky, an assistant professor of computer science, has been recognized with two early-career awards from organizations that promote diversity in technical fields. The awards honor her contributions in research, education and outreach.

The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Technical Committee on Computer Architecture (IEEE TCCA) and the Special Interest Group on Computer Architecture of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM SIGARCH) named PhD alum Caroline Trippel winner of the Outstanding Dissertation Award in Computer Architecture.

Adora is a personalized, digital college visit platform created by a group of Princeton undergraduate students. As entrepreneurship continues to thrive on campus, Adora made history as the first Princeton-student-led company to have the University as its first revenue-producing customer. Raya Ward, Princeton Class of 2021 and Head of User Experience for Adora, shares her team’s story, from the early stages of ideation to the final months before launch, while adapting to the pandemic.

For the third year in a row, Princeton University undergraduate students are helping to teach a version of Princeton’s computer science course, COS 126, at the University of Puerto Rico Mayagüez (UPRM) in collaboration with Dr. Alan Kaplan, from Princeton’s Department of Computer Science.

Using radar commonly deployed to track speeders and fastballs, researchers have developed an automated system that will allow cars to peer around corners and spot oncoming traffic and pedestrians.

Lauren von Berg, who received her bachelor’s degree in computer science on June 2, is first author of a peer-reviewed paper based on her Princeton Environmental Institute (PEI) internship studying the role of Antarctic sea ice in regulating the growth of the tiny algae known as phytoplankton.

Computers are renowned for flexibility, running everything from game consoles to stock exchanges. But at the level of computation, most computers rely on arrays of identical processors called cores. Now, a team at Princeton University has built a hardware platform that allows different kinds of computer cores to fit together, allowing designers to customize systems in new ways.
