  5. Course Project • Pick a dataset. • Stock market data, US patent data, web data, internet traffic data. • UC Irvine data repository. http://odwin.ucsd.edu/idata/ • Set of conf papers: http://www.acm.org/sigs/sigmod/record/xml/ • Medical, ecological, biological, text, movie database. • Rutgers labs.. • How to collect it? How to make it up? • HW 0: Decide by 02/26. Submit a writeup of what data, how you will collect it, how much, what application you will build—what queries are important, what challenges you foresee, schedule+timeline and how you are going to divide work, etc. • Midterm project review 03/25.
