PBT 2019-2020
PBT – retake session – check the rules [here]
PBT seminar 931 online [here]
PBT evaluation [931]
The methodology for the third seminar (March 30, 2020):
- live session using the above stream
- the presence must be notified, by each student, in the chat associated with the above stream (Surname, First Name)
- each student must prepare a pdf that contains:
- the title of the thesis and the student’s name (e.g. usage of a header will emphasise this info on every page)
- the table of content of his/her thesis
- a theoretical chapter or a consistent part of it – please insert before this chapter a preamble with a short description and informal specification of the approached problem (in this way, is more evident why you must present some theoretical elements, methods, models, etc.)
- please follow the suggestions regarding the document formatting
- if you have questions about the deliverables, they will be discussed during the live session
- for an efficient communication, each student must prepare an open-access (for professor) document and inform the professor about it
- each student must load the prepared pdf in [cs server] until the end of the day
The methodology for the fourth seminar (April 13, 2020):
- live session using the above stream
- the presence must be notified, by each student, in the chat associated with the above stream (Surname, First Name)
- each student must prepare a pdf that contains:
- another [part of the] theoretical chapter – please add a section/sub-chapter dedicated to related work/state of the art regarding the approached problem (other methods or models from the literature used to solve the considered problem)
- [optional: a chapter dedicated to the proposed approach where:
- all the theoretical elements, described in the theoretical chapter, could be adapted to the proposed application
- the relations between the developed model and each related work could be emphasised
- the advantages and disadvantages of the advanced model could be analysed]
- the first part of the practical chapter that must contain all the application requirements and the informal and formal specifications of the tackled problem
- please follow the suggestions regarding the document formatting
- if you have questions about the deliverables, they will be discussed during the live session
- for an efficient communication, each student must prepare an open-access (for professor) document and inform the professor about it
- each student must load the prepared pdf in [cs server] until the end of the day
For the next seminar (the fifth one) you have to prepare:
- new parts of the practical chapter
- one that describes the design of the application (a general flowchart, conceptual model, use cases, class diagrams, sequence diagrams, etc.)
- one that is dedicated to the implementation details (language, libraries, frameworks, other technological aspects, etc.)
- one that is dedicated to the validation and testing of the developed application
- one functionality of the proposed application
- the corresponding specification [already shown in the previous assignment]
- the dedicated use case(s)
- the corresponding code / implementation
- the validation and testing associated with this functionality
- the real working (live running of the functionality)
For the next next seminar (the sixth one) you have to prepare:
- the thesis’s Abstract that must emphasise:
- a short description of the thesis (motivation, the main idea of the proposed solution and short analysis of it)
- the structure of the thesis (short description of each thesis’s chapter)
- last paragraph of the abstract must be: “This work is the result of my own activity. I have neither given nor received unauthorized assistance on this work.“
- the thesis’s Introduction – in this chapter several elements must be present (in a non-technical style)
- the [theoretical and practical] context of the solved problem – why is important to solve this problem
- the proposed solution for the considered problem [and its strengths and, maybe, weaknesses]
- the student’s/thesis’s original contributions
- the structure of the thesis
- [optional: the thesis’s Conclusions – in this chapter several elements must be present
- on short, the tackled problem and the proposed solution
- the outcomes of the performed analysis
- possible future work and improvements to be done [maybe in a master program 🙂 ]
- [optional: the structure of the final presentation – a maximum of 10 slides dedicated to:
- author identification (name, specialisation, faculty, university)
- contents
- the considered problem and the proposed solution
- theoretical elements required by the proposed solution
- application presentation (design, implementation, validation)
- conclusions and further work]
- k (k>=2) new functionalities of the proposed application
- the corresponding specification [already shown in the previous assignment]
- the dedicated use case(s)
- the corresponding code / implementation
- the validation and testing associated with each functionality
- the real working (live running of each functionality)
