Seminar Autumn Semester 2022

Organization

  • Supervision: Prof. Dr. Torsten Braun
  • Coordination: Dr. Antonio Di Maio
  • Time: Every Monday, from 13:15 to 15:00
  • Location: Hörsaal 2 002, Engehalde, E8

Prerequisite

Basic knowledge in computer networks as e.g., obtained in the bachelor lecture Computer Networks.

Target Group

BA/MSc students doing a thesis in the CDS group, Ph.D. students, and postdocs of the CDS group.

Content

The seminar is composed of presentations about current research topics that are investigated in the context of Ph.D./Postdoc research activities.

Attendance

Each presenter must prepare three questions about the content of the presentation. The other students will have to attend the talk and upload the answers to the talk's questions on ILIAS before the following Thursday at 23:59 in order to have their attendance accounted for.

Remarks

  • For BA/MSc students who need ECTS points, they may take the seminar as „Proseminar“ or a Master seminar respectively. In this case, the students must give at least one talk and a topic must be agreed upon with the seminar supervisor beforehand. Seminar topics are distributed in the first week of the semester.
  • The participation of 80% of the seminar talks is also needed to qualify for ECTS points. Excuses for important reasons (according to article 23 RSL) are accepted, proof is required in such cases. It is mandatory to attend the first class of the semester.
  • Presentation titles should be announced prior to the presentation. After the presentation, the presenters must forward their slides to the coordinator for publication on ILIAS. Please use the Uni Bern template to prepare your presentation.
  • Seminar talks last 25 minutes, followed by a 15-minute Q&A session.
