This event was kind of a practice for presenting our posters. Each poster was up to 30 X 40 inches and had to summarize our 10 weeks of work.
Graph Generator Library Group. Yes, it's posed, but still rather cute :)
From Left: Dr. Amato, THE POSTER, me, Harsh, Olga, Chids.
Josh Haines describing his work. Josh worked with grad student Nathan Thomas on parallelizing code for the aerospace program.
Here is Joshua Nasman. To prove that the program is different for everyone, note that his poster uses a different format. Seriously though, Josh worked under the Parasol lab but had his own office, and spent his summer developing an algorithm. If you could read his poster from this picture, you'd know more about it ;)

USRG Poster Session.
This event was a formal presentation of our work. Judges came around to hear our "spiel". It was also a chance for us to see what other disciples had been working on this summer at Texas A&M.
While presenting a poster, you have to be very careful. Trying to read your audience, you can make the presentation as broad or specific as need be. For example, few industrial engineers would care about a graph generator, let alone a library about it.
My favorite part was learning from a graduate student in electrical engineering that our project really could be used by other disciplines, not just computer science.
Here is a better shot of our poster.
Well, I guess the presentation wasn't all serious. Here are some more of the gang: Kyaw and Nick. Nick decided to stand on a chair to mix things up :D
