I am in the biology dept here at USC and would like to see if any computer science students would be interested in helping us with a project. It isn't a "job" necessarily as there won't be any pay, but we plan on publishing our work and the student would be given a coauthor status on the paper. We have developed a DOS program with the help of a programmer from Intel that we could really use a GUI for but we lack the skills to make a decent looking interface. I believe it would be a fairly simple task as all the GUI has to do is allow check boxes or pull down menus to feed switches to the DOS command. Nothing more. But it should look nice and be intuitive. We currently run the program from the command line but there are a growing number of switches, which the user won't be able to remember without referring back to a manual. Ideally, the input boxes for the switches would provide some popup feedback. We hope this would give a student experience working in a collaborative, interdisciplinary, setting; provide a scientific publication; and help them hone their skills.

The MIT Technology Review has an article titled How Technology is Destroying Jobs that talks about how many non-skilled or low-skilled jobs are being automated away. The data shows that the job growth in the 2000's has almost exclusively been in the Computing areas, that is, those who create software or machines that then do the work. The chart on the right shows that 8 out of the top 10 fastest-growing jobs in 2000--2010 where in Computing or Computing-related fields.

The midlandsbiz published The Best Story Never Told – How Columbia became the hottest high-tech city in the South which summarizes some of what has been going on in the city:

One of those people is California-based Jim Jagielski, co-founder, member and director of The Apache Software Foundation and recognized leader in open-source software technologies. "Certainly Columbia is creating a reputation as the place to be on the East Coast for open-source communities," Jagielski says. "This is certainly due to the efforts of POSSCON and IT-ology in not only promoting Columbia itself, but in showing real-world effects of leveraging the power of open source and the open source methodology. And since all high-tech growth is based on or around open-source, Columbia itself is sitting in the catbird seat. PayPal's LeBlanc says beyond the conferences, beyond the hospitality and beyond the unparalleled commitment between partners, what makes Columbia stand out is its people, its community. "I've been thinking over the last couple of years, 'Why do I keep coming back to Columbia, South Carolina?,' and to be perfectly honest it's the people fostering a community that they want to be a part of," LeBlanc says. "It's like working on a close team where you all get along, and the entire community is like that. That creates bonds between people, gets people excited to come and learn and share, and that's what's happening in Columbia in a field that in a lot of ways represents the future of computing. It's something I have never seen with the exception of maybe one or two other conferences in the world.
