| Comment | Number of participants limited to 12. In the Master Programme max. 10 credits can be accounted by Labs on top of the Interfocus Courses. Additional Labs will be listed on the Addendum. |
| Abstract | The purpose of this laboratory course is to practically explore modern techniques to build large-scale distributed information systems. Participants will work in groups of three or more students, and develop projects in several phases. |
| Learning objective | The students will gain experience of working with technologies used in the design and development of information systems. |
| Content | First week: Kick-off meeting and project assignment Second week: Meeting with the project supervisor to discuss the goals and scope of the project. During the semester: Individual group work. Each team member should contribute to the project roughly about 10h/week, excluding any necessary reading or self-studying (e.g. the time spent to learn a new technology). In addition, it is expected that each team can meet with their supervisor on a regular basis. End of semester: Final presentation. |
