Networking independent systems allows for fulfilling a specific task in a coordinated fashion. The underlying message exchange needs to be specified correctly and in many cases needs to also provide non-functional aspects such as robustness, dependability and performance to a certain degree. This seminar will cover such topics in a conference-style setup.
- Audience: B.Sc. and M.Sc. students enrolled in one of the Faculty of Computer Science’s study programs
- Language of Instruction: English
- Supervisor: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Steffen Bondorf
Students will learn to work with a either a technical or a scientific paper, understand its contents and its context, critically reflect on it, and will learn to present their findings in a concise fashion.
- get one of the eight place via the faculty’s central allocation system, you will then be enrolled in this seminar’s Moodle course
- kick-off meeting
- first common meeting where each participant gives a very brief overview over the assigned paper (approx. two weeks after kickoff meeting)
- individual meetings with supervisor during the semester (at least one of which will be mandatory)
- deliverables at the end of the lecture period: survey (text document) and presentation (slides and / or poster)
