CS 8317: Student Presentations

CS 8317 (Spring 2022): Software Reliability and Safety

Information about Presentations

As I mentioned in the course syllabus, active participation is of critical importance to this course. Besides active participation in discussion in class and via e-mail/zoom-meetings, presentations are expected of every student, as described below.
Every student must make two presentations:
- An individual study presentation about a paper related to SRE, SSE, or the analysis techniques, roughly corresponding to the topics for your three homework assignments hw#2/RS1, hw#2/RS2, or hw#1/A, respectively. Please focus on the technical contents of the paper you selected (about 2/3 to 3/4 of the slides), with some analysis/discussion/critique as specific for your homework assignments also include (but not as extensively as in the homeworks due to the more limited time for presentation). All the presentations must be done on 4/1/2022 or 4/15/2022. The choices of presentation topics include:
  - Articles/chapters you studied for your hw#1-3.
  - Other papers, with approval of instructor.
  - Selected book chapters (corresponding to hw#1/A only) from Lyu/SREhandbook etc., with approval of instructor.
  Be sure to let me know of your choices as early as possible and get the approval. Normally we want to avoid multiple presentations of the same paper/chapter.
  Try to reserve your presentation slot ASAP via e-mail. See the available slots and corresponding topics in individual paper presentation schedule.
- A project presentation on 4/15/2022 or 4/29/2022. Again, try to reserve your presentation slot ASAP via e-mail. See the available slots in our project presentation schedule.
- You need to upload your presentation slides to Canvas before your scheduled presentation date.
You are welcome to make additional individual paper presentations, subjecting to availability of presentation slots.
Try to schedule your presentation as early as possible by sending an e-mail to me with your presentation title (give full reference information, please), desired date, and minutes needed (normally around 15-20 minutes).

Try to reserve your presentation slot ASAP via e-mail. Again, here are the schedules and available slots for your individual paper presentation and project presentation. Reserve your presentation slots ASAP via e-mail.
