Cobb '12 and Sprenkle take SIGCSE 2012

Camille Cobb '12 was a finalist in the ACM Student Research Competition held at SIGCSE 2012 in Raleigh, NC. Camille presented her poster on “Exploring Text-Based Analysis of Test Case Dependencies of Web Applications” in a four-hour session to unknown judges, which placed her in the top five student researchers. She gave a well-received 12-minute presentation two days later with tough competition–by all accounts, the finalists were all very strong.
