The NGO also has a few ashrams in certain districts of Maharashtra. These Ashrams mainly shelter the orphan girls. It educates them and even takes responsibility of getting them married. As a part of the project given to us, me and my colleague, Ms. Swastika Mishra was to survey the municipal schools located in Dombivili and Titwala. Although our base was the Balika Ashram in Titwala we had spent 5 working days in Dombivili surveying the rest four schools.

There are several studies that examine trends and emerging topics in CS research or the impact of papers on the field. In contrast, in this article, we take a closer look at the entire CS research in the past two decades by analyzing the data on publications in the ACM Digital Library and IEEE Xplore, and the grants awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF). We identify trends, bursty topics, and interesting inter-relationships between NSF awards and CS publications, finding, for example, that if an uncommonly high frequency of a specific topic is observed in publications, the funding for this topic is usually increased.
