Upcoming Seminar Presentations: Scheduling
by Bögli, Roman (INF) 29 Nov '24

29 Nov '24

Good Morning We have started to shape the schedule for the upcoming seminar final presentations, see bottom of the README.md in our GitLab repo on seminar-topics<https://gitlab.inf.unibe.ch/SEG/team/courses/seminar-software-engineering/s…>. Please enter your time slots as well, as soon as possible -- regardless of whether physical-only, virtual-only, or hybrid. In case you need additional room reservations, you can contact Bettina or book (smaller) rooms yourself<https://raumreservation.ub.unibe.ch/select>. Please update the room reservation info in the README as well then. Further, I recommend adding all the required attendees (e.g. Timo) to your Outlook meeting invite for two reasons: (1) It helps you find a time when everyone required is available, (2) it ensures that the selected time slot is reserved in all attendees’ calendars, rendering these times unavailable for other. Ideally, we have nice and sound schedule by end of next week (i.e. Dez 6th), so we can disseminate it among the students, such that they can (plant to) visit each other’s presentations as well. Best regards Roman

Dear all, the end of the semester is getting closer and some seminar projects maybe already in a state where the results can be presented by mid/end of December. We will have the first seminar presentation slots on - Dec. 17 (before 12:00 and after 16:00) - Dec. 18 (before 14:00) Please talk to your supervised students whether they want to present in these slots (20 min talk + 10 min discussion). For those who will not manage to finish their seminar work until December (which is totally fine), we will have further slots in January and early February (dates to be fixed). Best, Timo

November 2024, 16:15 (this is Zibelemärit, for everyone outside Bern) Uni Engehalde, Engehaldestrasse 8, Seminarraum 111 *Speaker* Filip Rezabek TU Munich *Title* METHODA - Framework for Large Scale Distributed Systems Evaluation *Abstract* To assess various topologies, configurations, and data traffic types in distributed systems e.g., blockchains, we introduce METHODA framework. METHODA allows for granular control of system under the test and deployments of third party code. The framework supports both local and cloud deployments allowing us to emulate realistic behavior. For scalability we rely on different virtualization techniques including support of various TEEs. The framework serves as a stepping stone for building new protocols, optimize performance of current systems, and assess impact of adding additional capabilities. *Brief bio* Filip Rezabek is a Research Associate in Network Architectures and Services at TU Munich. --- See you there!

Monthly Townhall Meeting
by Timo Kehrer 15 Nov '24

15 Nov '24

Dear all, I'd like to establish a monthly townhall meeting to foster communication and discussion, with an informal agenda that includes but is not limited to: - Research updates - Progress updates on student projects - Conference and travel reports - New ideas proposals - Teaching updates - Administrative updates - Any other business and open discussion I propose to do it online to make sure most of us are on board for each meeting. A possible slot could be Thursday afternoon 15:00 - 17:00, meeting the first Thursday of the month. We might have to reschedule from time to time, of course, but I'd like to keep it as regular as possible.. If there are any strong objections against the "first Thursday / month -- 15:00 to 17:00" proposal, please let me know by the end of the week. Best, Timo

Dear all, We are still missing the invoices for the Grammarly licence, and another one for Digitec (see below). Please check your records. Also send us the invoice a second time, even if you have done it before (sometimes hard to maintain overview). Speaking about overview: Please stop placing any orders on the credit card immediately, we need a different process for this. Best, Timo
