Seminar on summer work projects August 21 and September 4 2014

Summer workers at Dept. CS and HIIT present the results of their projects.

The presentation slots are 15 minutes each (10-12 minutes for the presentation + 3-5 minutes for questions and switching the presenter). There is also a 15-minute break after each session that can be used for additional discussions, a bathroom break or fetching coffee (up to the session chair to decide).

Please prepare your slides as a single PDF file and place it somewhere where you can access it quickly (e.g. WWW or an USB stick). You may also use your own laptop if you check before your session that it works with the projector in the lecture room.
