Things to do

  1. Choose 5 articles within our topic

  2. Select one of them, and give a 15min. presentation of it in seminar

  3. Write a survey of your 5 articles

The survey paper

The premise of the survey is that you are attending TDT24 in order to find out how parallel environments and numerical computing are related to your project/masters' thesis topic. Should you discover that they have little in common, there may not be any articles that fit perfectly into the intersection.

This is a valid thing to discover, and your selection of papers will not be rejected if they are only tangentially related to our focus in the course. Please bear in mind, however, that our course is about parallel environments and numerical computing, and make your survey (and presentation) from that perspective.
