General Information
Nowadays, it has become quite normal for computer scientists to work on an international team after they graduate. For example, consulting companies often form such international teams, with colleagues with specific competences from all over the world, to work on customer problems, using their laptops, no matter where they currently are. We intend to create a similar setting for our students in order to train them for this new scenario.
It is the purpose of this joint seminar between three European Universities to bring together researchers and students from several places to do joint work. Another cornerstone of this joint seminar are joint six-week long lab assignments. Students from the University of Oslo (NO) and University of Mannheim (DE) are encouraged to collaborate to fulfill the mandatory requirements for this joint course. The participating universities have outstanding research groups, and it will be quite beneficial for students on both sides to learn more about international state-of-the-art research and cooperation.

Topic
The teleseminar in the Autumn of 2015 will discuss advanced topics in Multimedia and in the Future Internet. The final topics depend on the interests of the students. Detailed information about the topics will be announced soon.
Joint Meeting
We will have a meeting at the University of Oslo in September 2015, give an introduction to the topic and build small international teams. Travel costs will be paid. In a subsequent cooperation phase of approximately 6 weeks, the teams will cooperate from their home locations, working on lab assignments, prepare a short joint paper (10 page IEEE style), and present and discuss their results in our seminar.
Grading and Participation
For Mannheim students the participation will count as a seminar. Bachelor students and Master students can participate due to the different complexities and topics of the tasks. If you have any questions, please contact Philip Mildner or Benjamin Guthier.
