Cynnwys

The content will vary from year to year, but will be based on a selection of current and relevant literature from academic articles, the web and other sources. Examples include: search engines, semantic webs, data mining, peer-to-peer distribution, GRID, OMG Model Driven Architecture, mobile agents etc.

Students work together as a team to write a survey-style paper that necessitates an extensive literature and web search. They present their papers to their peers, where other students are required to prepare and ask relevant questions.

Students participate in a conference organized by the Department of Computer Science where they present posters to peers and staff. The aim is to simulate a real academic poster presentation, in which they present proposed work.
