Google Tech Info Session: Web client development in Google Search
CSE403, Wednesday, April 30, 3:30-4:30 pm
Abstract: Web client development is a microcosm of software engineering where the web browser is a virtual machine and where the best developers understand memory management, networking, threading, graphics, and user behavior. This environment is forgiving for simple tasks and supports sophisticated applications from Search to Maps to Gmail. In this presentation I will share several technical challenges in Web client development within Google Search and argue that this is an ideal environment for well-rounded software engineers.
Speaker: Corin Anderson is a Principal Engineer at Google working in search on Visual Search Experience. This team is responsible for everything that makes Google Search look and act like Google Search, from the instant search-as-you-type feature to the excepts shown for each result and down to minute but important visual design aspects. Prior to Google Corin studied at the University of Washington, earning B.S. degrees in Math and Computer Science and Masters and Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science.
