SUMMARY:Apple vs. Samsung: a Mathematical Battle
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\nAbstract:\nApple and Samsung have been fighting patent
 battles around the world. Come learn about the mathematics at the heart of
 one of these battles\, the error correcting codes used in 3G communication.
 We will give a gentle introduction to coding theory\, explain why this
 caused a legal battle\, and we will conclude by describing why President
 Obama ultimately vetoed the ruling by the court (the first time a president
 had used that veto power in nearly 30 years!).\n\n\nBiography:\nJim Davis\,
 Professor of Mathematics at the University of Richmond since 1988\, does
 research in combinatorics and error correcting codes. He spent two years
 working for Hewlett-Packard and he has 15 patents stemming from that work.
 He has published more than 50 papers\, including several with
 undergraduates as coauthors (one of those also has Sihem Mesnager as
 coauthor). Outside of mathematics\, he is an avid squash and bridge
 player.\n\n\n
