UCLA is one of the nation's largest and most prestigious graduate education centers in computer and information technology. The dedicated efforts of our prominent faculty and exceptional students have coalesced to rank us among the top computer science departments in the world. The UCLA Computer Science Department is well known for its research in the design and analysis of complex computer systems and networks, and for its key role in the creation of the ARPANET—the precursor to today’s Internet. Internationally recognized research has been carried out in such diverse computer science areas as embedded systems, artificial intelligence, mobile computing, architecture, simulation, graphics, data mining, CAD and reconfigurable systems, biomedical systems, programming languages and compilers. 2 The Computer Science Department has continued to excel in both research and education during the 2003 to 2005 academic years (the period covered in this report).

    V WICSE: A Network of our Own by Sheila Humphreys It just helped me feel more normal. Kathie Nichols, PhD 1984 WICSE Presidents at the WICSE 40th Anniversary, March 2018, Sutardja-Dai Hall, UC Berkeley Since the 1970s the women’s graduate student organization WICSE (Women in Computer Science and Electrical Engineering) has pursued the goal of increasing the number of women in that discipline and supporting their academic progress. The early days of WICSE were described in Chapter III. WICSE has become a permanent presence in the EECS Department, and, indeed, is the first such group in an American university with a disciplinary focus on computing or electrical engineering in a computer science department.1 The faculty have come to recognize the value of their service to the departmental community and support WICSE with funding. During the 80s, WICSE students worked on graduate recruitment and pressed for hiring women faculty. In that decade twenty-three 1 The national Society of Women Engineers was founded in 1950. UC Berkeley’s student chapter of SWE was founded in 1975. 1 women earned doctoral degrees. Among the distinguished PhD graduates of that decade who were successful at universities and in industry were Barbara Simons, Belle Wei, Teresa Meng, Audrey Viterbi, Susan Eggers and Kathie Nichols.2 One of the organization’s first activities was a reception for “Women in Engineering” at the Women’s Faculty Club in 1979. The WICSE students identified the faculty who were particularly sympathetic to women. Students explained the purpose of what became annual receptions: “The reception has as its purpose to improve the quality of academic life for women students by offering professional role models and the chance to meet and form personal contacts with other engineering students.” At the first reception, Paula Hawthorn, the first President of WICSE, recognized Statistics Professor Elizabeth Scott and two male allies, CS Professor Manuel Blum3 and EE alumnus Dr.

  • The 1958 Pekeris-Accad-Weizac Ground-Breaking Collaboration That Computed Ground States of Two-Electron Atoms (And Its 2010 Redux)
    THE 1958 PEKERIS-ACCAD-WEIZAC GROUND-BREAKING COLLABORATION THAT COMPUTED GROUND STATES OF TWO-ELECTRON ATOMS (AND ITS 2010 REDUX) CHRISTOPH KOUTSCHAN ∗ AND DORON ZEILBERGER ∗∗ In order to appreciate how well off we mathematicians and scientists are today, with extremely fast hardware and lots and lots of memory, as well as with powerful software, both for numeric and symbolic computation, it may be a good idea to go back to the early days of electronic computers and compare how things went then. We have chosen, as a case study, a problem that was considered a huge challenge at the time. Namely, we looked at C.L. Pekeris's [9] seminal 1958 work1 on the ground state energies of two-electron atoms. We went through all the computations ab initio with today's software and hardware. Schrodinger¨ Let's recall the (time-independent) Schr¨odingerequation for the state function (alias wave func- tion) (x; y; z) of a one-electron atom with a stationary nucleus (see, for example, [8] Eq. (30-1) with N = 1), in atomic units: @2 @2 @2 Z + + + 2 E + (x; y; z) = 0; @x2 @y2 @z2 r where Z denotes the nuclear charge, E the energy of the system, and r = px2 + y2 + z2 the distance of the electron to the nucleus. Schr¨odinger'ssolution of this eigenvalue problem is one of the greatest classics of modern physics, familiar to all physics students (and chemistry students, but unfortunately not math), using sep- aration of (dependent) variables, and getting explicit and exact results for the eigenvalues (the possible energy levels E) and even for the corresponding eigenfunctions .
