The SIGMETRICS Student Industry Workshop will consist of a series of
invited talks from industrial researchers to illustrate what
performance evaluation, optimization and modeling questions are
tackled today at industrial labs. This is an occasion for students to
learn more about the areas of leadership of each company, to acquire
information about internship and post-doc employment opportunities, to
understand better the industrial work environment, and to discuss
during the networking break with the participants about topics of
mutual interest. Please note that the workshop is not meant to be a
job fair, hence presenters are not expected to collect resumes or
provide feedback on job applications.
Participation to the Student Industry Workshop is open to all
registered SIGMETRICS students.
