The BDS architecture together with the analytics framework aims at helping theMSPs in forecasting the network traffic. The results of the traffic big data analytics and thenetwork load forecasting can be used to adjust different network operating parameters.

The overall objective of this project is to determine the impact of teaching function onengineering students’ design synthesis abilities. Two studies are being performed as a part ofthis project: (1) a longitudinal study following students through their sophomore, junior, andsenior year following some being taught functional modeling, while others not, and (2) a yearlystudy looking at capstone project quality of students from
