Week 1 Report

June 1 - 4, 2010

During Week 1, I started setting up the computers to be used for my work. My supervisor gave me some papers to read to get a better understanding of the project I needed to do. I was assigned to "The Next Justice" project which consists of collecting data from blogs posted on different websites. The data is then filtered to make a prediction about which person is going to be elected for the next justice seat. The filtering process consists of removing from the blogs all data that have no relevance to the information we are searching for. My assignment was to examine the computer code written and find an error that was happening when the filtering was done to the XML files.
