GI-APP: Government and Industry Affiliates and Partners Program
The Government and Industry Affiliates and Partners Program (GI-APP) is developed and hosted by the Department of Computer Science and Information Technology (CSIT: non-profit and public higher education) at the University of the District of Columbia in Washington, D.C., USA. The program is designed to support the needs of industry (world-wide), government agencies, and academia in a mutually beneficial and synergistic manner. GI-APP is an enabler for realizing key breakthroughs in networking, recruitment, and collaboration in computer science R&D and businesses.

If you are applying for graduation, you need to contact your academic advisor for evaluating your graduation readiness with the department chair or the undergraduate program director.

Zero-energy Cloud
The CSIT (Computer Science and Information Technology) Department at UDC launches a new collaborative research project (Zero-energy Cloud Project) with the Department of Electric Engineering. This project focuses on utilizing green energy (by solar panel and wind-turbine) to operate cloud computing facility.

A Cloud Computing Environment
Depart. of CSIT built a could computing environment with initial 20 computing nodes. The cloud computing nodes are placed in a specific designated room at UDC. UDC Open Cloud Development Strategic Plan is formed having two phases. For the Phase-I, UDC open cloud platform development has been completed with 20 computing nodes (see Figure 1). For the Phase-II, up to 200 computing nodes are going to be added in near future.

Digital Functions and Data Reconstruction
A Computer Science professor (L.M. Chen) published a book "Digital Functions and Data Reconstruction", 2013, Springer SBN 978-1-4614-5637-7.http://www.springer.com/computer/image+processing/book/978-1-4614-5637-7
This will be the first book about digital functions, which is an important modern research area for digital images and digitalized data processing, and provides an introduction and comprehensive coverage of digital function methods.
