Alumni News and Events (Information Technology)

Mr. Ori Allon created a new algorithm called Orion. Mr. Allon is a graduate of Monash University (B.Comp 2002, MIT 2005) and now works at Google in the Search Quality team working on incorporating his algorithm. "The benefit of the Orion algorithm, in particular, is that users will find what they’re looking for quickly rather than having to scroll down a webpage to look for it,” said Mr Allon
