Apply on http://www.nicfutureleaders.org/

The seniors housing and care industry provides both housing and an array of services to seniors, generally to those over the age of 75. Care segments are commonly divided into four categories: independent living, assisted living, memory care and nursing care. Nursing care has typically been provided in an institutional-style setting, though there is a growing movement toward more home-like surroundings. The other care segments are typically provided in a multifamily setting.


Seniors housing and care properties also including continuing care retirement communities (CCRCs), which typically offer all care segments, including independent living, assisted living and nursing care.

In the United States, there currently are approximately 21,100 investment-grade seniors housing and care properties containing nearly 2.8 million units. “Investment grade” is defined as those age-restricted properties with at least 25 units/beds that charge market rates for the housing and services offered. The total market capitalization of this investment-grade seniors housing and care property market is estimated between $230 billion and $260 billion.

I encourage you to read these brave stories and to remind our community about this important month. We hope it contributes to reducing stigma related to people living with mental health challenges.

Other important information can also be found in our May newsletter to include information related to May events like our closing 20th Anniversary picnic, book club, returning women meeting, and mother's group meeting.

Good luck with finals and the end of the semester!

Congratulations to CSEE graduate students Josiah Dykstra (Computer Science, Ph.D.) and Han Dong (Computer Science, M.S.) for winning the Computer Science and Electrical Engineering (CSEE) Department's 2011-2012 awards for best research by a Ph.D. student and best research by an M.S. student, respectively.

Winners were chosen based on the scientific merit (significance, originality, notriviality, correctness) and the writing style of their research papers.

Josiah's (pictured left) research, entitled "Acquiring Forensic Evidence from Infrastructure-as-a-Service Cloud Computing: Exploring and Evaluating Tools, Trust, and Techniques", deals with digital forensics for cloud computing, including frameworks, tools, and legal analysis to facilitate forensic investigations of remote Infrastructure-as-a-Service clouds. You can read Josiah's full paper here. 

Han's (pictured right) research, entitled "Cross-Platform OpenCL Code and Performance Portability for CPU and GPU Architectures Investigated with a Climate and Weather Physics Model", investigates the portability of OpenCL across CPU and GPU architectures in terms of code and performance via a

representative NASA GEOS-5 climate and weather physics model. Han discovered that OpenCL's vector-oriented programming paradigm assists compilers with implicit vectorization and creates significant performance gains. You can read Han's full paper here.

CSEE graduate students Karuna Joshi (Computer Science, Ph.D.) and James MacGlashan (Computer Science, Ph.D.) were awarded honorable mention.

As this year's winners, both Josiah and Han will present their work at this year's CSEE Research Review, which takes place this Friday, May 4 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the large conference room of the UMBC Technology Center's business incubator and accelerator building.
