Project Description
During the course of the internship, the participants will be involved in various advance graph database analytics and algorithms development efforts. This will include among other things:
• Testing and validation of the result of various graph queries (i.e., GREMLIN queries) to ensure that the output is consistent with the query's logic intent
• Applying graph query languages to extract relevant data from an online graph database and answer specific business questions
• Using various desktop tool for data manipulation and visualization to draw insights from the complex data set extracted from the graph database
• Developing data visualization tools to help represent the resulting data set in a user friendly environment
• Creating simple scripting modules to automate various task pertaining to data organization, data extraction, and data visualization

Project Deliverables
The work of the participant will be integrated into the production effort of a broader team. Specific deliverables of increasing complexity will be expected weekly as the participant develop skills and expertise in the domain of interest. To stay on track with the program, participants will be expected to
• commit an average of 15-20 hrs of productive work per week taking into account the student's course load and exams schedule
• Students are expected to acquire the minimum skills and know-how needed to participate to project activities (e.g., use of project management software, graph database query language)
• Rigorous project management and document management methods is to be used at all time
• U.S. Xpress expert oversight will be available to guide the effort
