DB Reading Group

We are a group of PhD students at Brown University Computer Science Department who are interested in database research. We read and discuss the most recent as well as some classical papers in our research area for many good reasons. Our weekly meeting time is Mondays 6-7pm, which can be backed up by Wednesdays 6-7pm for some weeks. The default meeting location is CIT Room 506. Please see the meeting schedule below for more info.
