Computer Science Research at the University of Toronto: Database Queries (Call for Participants)

[zuzelvp]

Want to win a $100 Best Buy gift card? Do you have basic knowledge about
database queries? If so, I need you!

Subjects are needed to take part in a study concerning the visualization
of database queries. Participants will be asked to draw diagrams that
represent the execution of database queries or to determine what queries
are represented by a set of diagrams. This study will help design a tool
intended to help expert and novice programmers to design and debug such
queries. The time needed for the study will range from 30 minutes to an
hour, and can take place in the Bahen Centre at the University of Toronto
or elsewhere in the Greater Toronto Area.

A basic understanding of relational databases and database queries is
required. The examples will contain queries in SQL and other programming
languages like Ruby or Python. The participants should be
fluent/conversant in English.

Participants who complete the study will be entered into a random draw for
a $100 Best Buy gift card. The odds of winning this prize are 1 in 30.
