• Grading: Bonus 5%75% Literature Review25% Presentation
Research Warm-up
• Requirements1. Find a research topic you are
interested in: e.g., computer architecture, computer network, network security;
2. Read 2-3 latest papers from recent CCF A conferences;
3. Write a review and prepare a presentation.
Research Warm-up
• Notes: The review should cover1. What is the research problem?2. Why is it important?3. What are the solutions?4. Any limitations?5. What would you do?

How will I teach?
Not that professional yet…
My very first time teaching this course.You know what to expect.
But the upside is
I was still a studentuntil not very long ago.
I still clearly remember how it feels as a student.
This might ease your leaning process.
Teaching Plan
• Keep it Simple• Focus on the core concepts• Try to help you more easily understand
Teaching in English for the most part
in accordance with the textbook.
Study Group
• 45 students• 6 groups• Group discussion & tutoring• Peer evaluation
