ECE6094: Computing Engineering Seminar (Fall 2016)
Introduction
During this seminar series students present foundational papers in computer science on computation
and thinking. Each student study and present one such paper – this includes asking critical questions
about why the paper is considered fundamental, whether we should agree with its conclusions etc. During
the presentation the audience asks questions and gives comments about the content, the logical progression
of the presentation itself, etc. Students are expected to participate during these discussions and their
understanding is separately tested.
