Description:

The doctorate's colloquium enables junior researchers to get in touch with fellow PhD students and advanced graduate students that are affiliated with the Institute of Computer Science. The main aim is to encourage the exchange of thoughts on research topics and general problems outside of their original research project. To that end, we provide a friendly and informal get-together that allows interdisciplinary discussions and that way implicitly broaden one's horizon for the potentially related research of others.

Content:

• Foundations of Theoretical Computer Science
• Computer Architecture
• Imperative and Object-oriented Programming

Target group:

Teachers from the Berlin schools

Requirements:

Approval by the Senate Administration for Education, Youth and Science

Mathematical and logical thought is crucial for solving problems in computer science. Throughout the last years we mentioned some shortcomings in the first lectures in computer science. The prepatory course will focus on these shortcomings. The main areas are: basic set theory, relations and functions, logical basics, dealing with mathematical formulas, and the understanding of mathematical proofs.

Contents:

Talks about current research in theoretical computer science, with a particular focus on algorithms.

Target Audience:

Masters and PhD students in the theory group.

Our research seminar provides a good overview for our different activities at the HCC.lab and much more. Topics, which are interesting for the HCC group as well as be state of the art in our research field will be presented. This topic list will be extended over the whole semester. Presentations will be either held by HCC.lab members, BA/MA thesis students and from external researchers as well. The seminar will provide a positive atmosphere for collaborative learning. In open discussions new insights will be generated and existing thoughts be questioned. Not only topics will be approached, but methods will be investigated as well. Therefore a regular attendance will be beneficial, even if the topic is not covering the personal thematic focus exactly. The seminar is basically open for all students, but members of HCC.lab and students, who write their thesis in our group, are supposed to attend.

The Mentoring Programme offers lectures to support and advise students especially during their first semesters. There are, however, also many lectures addressed to advanced students.

The complete programme may be found here.

Rust is a new language from Mozilla that describes itself as follows: "Rust is a system programming language that runs at lightning speed, avoids memory errors and guarantees thread security."

The aim of this course is to learn the basics of programming in Rust and to understand how Rust achieves its ambitious goals and treads new paths with complex topics such as memory management and concurrency.

First, the basics of the language are explained. Later, concepts like Ownership & Borrowing, Traits & Generics, as well as Lifetimes. Finally, you should have enough knowledge to develop your own small project.

This course is aimed at everyone with simple programming experience. The intention is to give everyone the chance to deal with low-level programming, especially those who don't feel comfortable with the common languages of this domain (C/C++).
