TDDD50 Green Computing

Seminars

General information

Seminars are devoted to discussions current topics on the subject of Green Computing. The students, under the supervision of the teacher, will present and discuss scientific articles. The seminar sessions will be taken in groups of maximum 14 students.

  • Course and seminar registration: To know how many seminar groups we actually have, please make a definitive registration to the course on the webreg, before January 22nd 2013 (select the COURSE DEFINITIVE REGISTRATION activity).
    You can also preliminarily select your seminar group in webreg (select the SEMINARS activity). If we need to reduce the number of groups, we will merge some groups and inform you.
  • Students must select a paper to present among the ones listed below (excluding seminar 0). Send an email to: aruna.bianzino@liu.se indicating a favorite and a backup article. Use "TDDD50-Group-X-Articles" as mail subject. The selection must be done within January 22nd 2013.
    Within January 24th 2013 a list with the articles assigned to the students will be sent by email.


Rules of the game

Each session will comprise two papers with the presentation (20 min), discussion (20 min), and individual feedback on the presentation (5 min) for each article. The list with articles, session of discussion, and links to download them is available in the seminar plan. During the seminar the students will adopt two different roles:

  • Leader: The student has one article assigned to present and lead a discussion about it. This role is adopted once for each student.
  • Participant: The rest of the students listen to the presentation and actively participate in the discussion.
The evaluation of the seminar activities is detailed in the examination section.

How the papers are assigned to students is explained in the first lecture.
