| 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. |
