Comments

In this seminar, students perform literature research on topics related to information security, possibly augmented by practical exploration. The list of topics is discussed and topics are assigned during the first seminar.

Suggested reading

All seminar participants must perform a thorough search for scientific literature on their chosen topics. At least the following sources must be searched for relevant literature: ACM Digital Library http://dl.acm.org/ Google Scholar http://scholar.google.com/ Authors' homepages found via web searches with relevant keywords It is imperative that students follow literature references backwards (to identify seminal and foundational papers on their subject i.e., the first ones to report results on the topic under consideration) and forward (using the cited-by features of digital libraries, or Web searches for the current paper's title) to identify the most recent work on the topic under consideration. Note that newsticker articles or Wikipedia articles do not count as scientific literature. close
