Studentenseminarium 2009 - 2010
Marcello Bonsangue and Hristo Nikolov
The goal of this seminarium is to prepare students for research by means of reading, abstracting, and presenting scientific literature in the context of existing courses. Students are given suitable research papers linking a second year course with the scientific area related to the course. Students should work in a small group on one paper per semester: one foundational (F) and one related to more application oriented research (A). They have to read and understand the papers assigned to them. At the end of the semester they should be able to present the paper to their peers in a student symposium. Attending the seminar meetings and active participation is mandatory for all second year Computer Science students. Students who are enrolled also for a Bachelor in Mathematics, Physics, Astronomy or yet another study are advised to consult the study advisor for Computer Science (Dr. J. de Graaf) on this matter. Students will be evaluated on the basis both of their approach to reading and understanding the scientific papers assigned to them and of their presentation at the students' symposium at the end of each semester. These symposia are scheduled for Tuesday December 1st, 2009 in room 174 and Tuesday May 11th, 2010, in room 174 both from 10:00 to 16:30. Introduction to the seminar and assignment of scientific papers to students will take place in room 405 on Friday September 11, from 13:45 to 15:30 (fall semester) and in room 412 on Monday February 15, from 13:45 to 15:30 (spring semester). Participating students should attend these meetings! At these meetings the groups will be formed and they can express their preference for certain subjects (recall each student should read and present one F and one A paper, one paper per semester). The groups in the spring semester should be different from those in the fall. The teachers from the second year have supplied us with papers: For the fall semester: Datastructuren (F); Concepten van Programmeertalen (F); Fundamentele Informatica 2 (F); Software Engineering (A); Computer Architectuur (A). For the spring semester: Complexiteit (F); Programmeren en Correctheid (F); Kunstmatige Intelligentie (A); Requirements Engineering (A); Operating Systemen (A).
