= Examples of assignments =

= Expectations =
 * select papers -> list of 2 selected papers to Josef (email)
 * UiOLibrary how to use IEEE, ACM and other library information to search for papers
 * you are able to search without VPN, but for printout of .pdf you need someone with access (Knut, Sarfraz)
 * Alternative: scholar.google.com
 * starting point: literature list of UNIK4700


 * prepare presentation (typical 35 min), focus
 * explain content
 * point out strengths and weaknesses
 * discuss with colleagues
