Main themes

The topics covered in the seminar will address Computer network and security. In particular, scientific articles are selected in these fields.

On the one hand, students are confronted with problem of the quality of a scientific bibliography. Moreover, students read scientific literature (eg articles from international journals).

Aims

Given the learning outcomes of the "Master in Computer Science and Engineering" program, this course contributes to the development, acquisition and evaluation of the following learning outcomes:

  • INFO1.1-3
  • INFO3.1, INFO3.2
  • INFO5.3-4, INFO5.6
  • INFO6.1, 6.4

Given the learning outcomes of the "Master [120] in Computer Science" program, this course contributes to the development, acquisition and evaluation of the following learning outcomes:

  • SINF1.M1
  • SINF3.1, SINF3.2
  • SINF5.3-4, SINF5.6
  • SINF6.1, SINF6.3, SINF6.4

Student completing successfully this course will be able to

  • establish the state of the art based on the scientific literature, when confronted with a research problem beyond his current knowledge,
  • prepare a comprehensive report including a scientific bibliography and explaining its relevance to a theme,
  • synthesize a scientific article by explaining the context, challenges, innovative results, potential applications as well as tracks for further work in the field,
  • communicate orally the results of a research to a public of computer scientists not experts in the field,
  • interact with a person who presents research results showing a critical and constructive look over the work presented.

Moreover active participation of student presentations is noted for 10% of the points of the final grade.

The oral exam, which is the individual presentation of a scientific paper accounts for 60% of the final grade.

Teaching methods

This Seminar is composed by  :

  • Writing a bibliography group
  • Individual presentation of a scientific article
