Contents

Knowledge, methods and techniques from sub-areas of computer science are applied to a concrete problem. Procedure:

  • Familiarisation with and study of the literature relevant to the project
  • Project definition, planning and presentation of the project and its parts in the form of seminar presentations after the induction phase.
  • Structuring of the project into partial problems, scheduling of the processing of partial problems and the integration of partial solutions, definition of subgroups for the processing of partial tasks, definition of interfaces, etc.
  • Documentation and operating instructions for software systems
  • Monitoring the progress of the work and adherence to the schedule.
  • Preparation of a final report containing a systematic description of the problem dealt with and the solution adopted, a description of the factual and temporal structuring of the problem handling and the compilation and discussion of the results obtained.
  • Presentation of the completed project in a public lecture

Qualification Goals

Unchecked automatic translation:
- Working on an extensive task from computer science / data science in a team of several students; development, adaptation, extension and development of problem-relevant methods; instruction of participants to learn, plan and work independently,

  • Practice of project management and monitoring methods, e.g.: goal descriptions, planning, milestones, keeping minutes, deadlines, delegation, controlling; practice of team-related social skills: Cooperation, team development, leadership, motivation, well-structured team, working under deadline pressure,
  • Mastery of methods of documentation and presentation of IT projects for users and third parties in the form of program documentation, project reports and, if necessary, publications.

Prerequisites

None.
