Visiting professors invited by the TU Wien Informatics Doctoral School will give a 45-minute talk about their research area
Due to the CoVid restrictions the talks will be given mostly online.
Scheduled talks for the summer term:
April 19, 17:00: Frank Leymann: The Power of Quantum Computing, for details see https://informatics.tuwien.ac.at/news/2005
May 27, 17:00: Moshe Vardi
June: Tommie Meyer --- cancelled
All further details will be announced as soon as possible.
Since one of the planned talks had to be cancelled, we will change the original requirements (see below) as follows:
If you only attended 2 talks (attendance to be proven), you are invited to watch the recording of one more talk and write a 3 page summary for each of these three talks. Please note that this is the absolute minimum requirement.
The videos of the talks are available in TUWEL.
<original version follows>
The plan is to have 5 talks in total during this study year 2020/21.
Students will be graded provided that the following requirements are fulfilled:
- Attendance to at least 3 talks (to be proven).
- Submission of assignment.
Preferably, students attend 4 talks, choose 3 of those for their report and give a summary of at least 2 pages for each.
For students who can only attend 3 talks this summary must comprise at least 3 pages for each talk.
Talks will be offered both in winter term 2020/21 and summer term 2021, and any combination of all those may be chosen (but the course will definitely end after the summer term, a further combination with talks from the winter term 21/22 will not be possible).
The reports should be written in English and in latex (a template is provided in TUWEL). The deadline for submission of the assignment is July 31st at 23:55h through TUWEL.
