The following is a list of past talks presented at the 2002-2003 Colloquium series.
We have video of the speakers' presentations available for those who are unable to attend the talks. Viewing this video will require Windows Media Player, or another program compatible with Windows Media files such as MPlayer or VLC. If you have Internet Explorer you can see a Powerpoint presentation of the speaker's slides alongside the video - but please note this requires an ActiveX Powerpoint plugin for Internet Explorer, which potentially can make your browser less secure. EE Computing does not support or recommend this!
