research seminar 2025
The research seminar Trends in Operating Systems is targeted at students who are planning to do their Master's project or Master's thesis with the Professorship for Operating Systems and Middleware. We also invite Master's students who are generally interested in our research projects and topics. Besides discussing contributions from students, the seminar is also used for exchange regarding the academic activities of the group members.
Students can enrol in the seminar and earn 3 or 6 ECTS credits. To earn 3 credits, a prospective candidate has to study recent publications (~ 3 – 5) in an area of our current research projects and topics. We also welcome the suggestion of cross-cutting and further topics. The candidate has to deliver a presentation in our seminar and hand in a short report. To earn 6 credits, we expect students to work on a hands-on project, which may involve implementation or evaluation work in addition to the presentation.
