Mission Statement

The independent development and presentation of a technical topic is very important in a time of partly very short-lived technologies with ever shorter knowledge innovation cycles. The seminar focuses on these two components: the appropriation of a subject and the presentation of the edited topic.

Content

Current questions of computer science with special consideration of mobile and distributed applications. Independent development of a given subject on the basis of primary literature and other sources as well as its written and oral presentation. It will be offered with changing current computer science topics, which are appropriate in the degree of difficulty for a Master's degree.
