Im ersten Teil der zweisemestrigen Vorlesung werden die Anfänge der Mediengeschichte vorgestellt, die geprägt sind vom Übergang aus der Mündlichkeit in die Schriftlichkeit. Besonderes Augenmerk liegt in der Folge auf dem Umschlagspunkt von der Handschrift zum Buchdruck, mit dem das Zeitalter der Massenmedien angebahnt wurde. Zudem behandelt wird die Mediengeschichte des Bildes, die Rolle des Menschen und seiner Sinne als Vorbedingung des Mediengebrauchs sowie die medialen Grundlagen der Geschichtsvorstellung selbst. Die Darstellung erfolgt jeweils im Ausgang der heutigen Gebrauchskontexte und im Hinblick auf die soziokulturellen Auswirkungen entlang der medienwissenschaftlichen Differenzierungen von ‚Speicherung vs. Übertragung’ sowie ‚analog vs. digital‘.

The seminar will be held in presence.

First meeting: Wednesday 19.04.2023, 2:00 - 4:00 p.m.

Further meetings: Wednesdays 26.04.2023, 17.05.2023, 14.06.2023, 12.07.2023, 2:00 - 4:00 p.m.

The final presentations will be held in presence during the last week of July and the first week of August 2023. The exact dates will be announced soon.

The successful completion of the seminar enables the participants to understand, summarize and present recent, complex, and professional literature on network security, including Internet security, security of wireless and cellular networks, as well as security of networked systems more generally. Furthermore, every participant acquires profound knowledge in his/her small topic.

During the seminar, students acquire scientific knowledge starting with a topic of their choosing. Then, they present the acquired knowledge of the research area in a written report and in a talk. The key benefits for the students are to learn to review original scientific literature and common practices as well as train their communication skills in written and oral forms in a professional context. The participation in the seminar includes continuous attendance and active participation in addition to the written report and talk on an accepted paper.

Communication networks such as the Internet, enterprise networks, data center networks, or wireless networks, have become a critical infrastructure of our digital society. Accordingly, the networks need to meet stringent dependability and security requirements. Network security is hence crucial and revolves around the policies, processes and practices adopted to prevent, detect and monitor unauthorized access, misuse, modification, or denial of a computer network and network-accessible resources. 

The goal of this seminar is to get an understanding of the state-of-the-art technology used by both attackers and defenders of networks. To this end, we will critically discuss recent scientific publications in this area, review open-source implementations, and study whether existing methodologies and evaluations can be reproduced. The seminar hence will consist of discussions, presentations and hands-on and research components.

The seminar will be held in presence.

First meeting: Wednesday 19.04.2023, 2:00 - 4:00 p.m. in room EW 202

Further meetings: Wednesdays 26.04.2023, 17.05.2023, 14.06.2023, 12.07.2023, 2:00 - 4:00 p.m. in room EW 202

The final presentations will be held in presence during the last week of July and the first week of August 2023. The exact dates will be announced soon.

The goal of the seminar is to get an understanding of the fundamental theoretical and algorithmic aspects of distributed and networked systems, and their applicability in state-of-the-art and emerging technology. You will learntechniques to model, analyze and optimize networked systems, and get an understanding of emerging trends andapplications.

Given the popularity of data-driven applications (e.g., related to business, health and entertainment) and artificialintelligence, computing systems are becoming increasingly distributed and networked. This results in increasingly stringent performance and dependability requirements on such systems. In this seminar, we discuss emerging and innovative new approaches to improve the efficiency and security of distributed and networked systems. We will revisit the theoretical foundations of networked and distributed systems, the underlying fundamental algorithms and optimizations they rely on, and discuss their applicability in modern networks. We will also discuss recent proposals in the literature which aim to render distributed and networked systems more flexible and secure, and explore further optimization opportunities.

Contents: The seminar revolve around fundamental problems and design principles. A tentative outline of the main topics to becovered in the course are

* Network algorithms and theory of networking

* Distributed algorithms and optimization

* Decentralization and scalability

* Emerging networking technology and applications, and their impact on models and optimizations.
