Prerequisites
SOUHLAS
Basic experience with implementation of nontrivial program systems. Interest in Lasaris activities.
In the case of Process Mining seminar (see Course objectives), the interest about the data science and this particular domain is enough.
In the case of Blockchain seminar (see Course objectives), students must have solid skills in programming with C++ or Java languages and have good knowledge of working on a Linux desktop. It is necessary to have the laptop with installed Linux.
Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.
The capacity limit for the course is 100 student(s).
Current registration and enrolment status: enrolled: 1/100, only registered: 0/100, only registered with preference (fields directly associated with the programme): 0/100

Course objectives
Learning outcomes of the course unit The aim of the course is to support the activities of the Laboratory of Software Architectures and Information Systems (Lasaris) in research, development and teaching of theoretical topics and practical problems in building large software systems and deployment of modern information technologies in practice. It deals with the design and development of reliable and secure information systems, process and data modeling, system implementation management, and software technologies for their construction. The seminar makes acquainted with interesting research and development projects solved in Lasaris, particularly in the area of designing large IT and critical infrastructures, for example, to support smart grids. Additionally, external specialists, especially from the IT industry or from abroad, are regularly invited to talk.

In the autumn 2020 semester, PV226 will host separate semester specialized seminars conducted in English or Czech / Slovak. Those interested in one of them enroll in the course PV226 and select the appropriate seminar group:
  • Process Mining led by Martin Macák, in which you will learn about many techniques of process analysis based on recorded events.
  • Blockchain (led by Dr. Bacem Mbarek) focused on understanding the concepts of Blockchain, design and implementation of selected Blockchain use cases, creating smart contracts and deploying IoT networks via Hyperledger Fabric Compose.
  • IoT (led by Ing. Lukáš Grolig) focused on the basics of Internet of Things technologies incl. necessary introduction to microelectronics.
  • Machine Learning (led by Ing. Lukáš Grolig) focused on the practical application of machine learning in the real world.

  • Learning outcomes
    Student will be able to:
    - actively participate in the activities of the Software Architecture and Information Systems Laboratory (Lasaris) research, development and teaching of topics related to the theoretical solutions practical problems in building large software systems and the deployment of modern information technology in practice;
    - apply the chosen knowledge of the design and development of reliable and secure information systems, process and data modeling, system implementation management, and software technologies for their construction;
    - engage in research and development projects in Lasaris, particularly in the area of designing large IT and critical infrastructures, for example, to support smart grids.

    Teaching methods
    In the case of Lasaris overview lectures on new topics in the lab and relevant topics not covered by specific courses at FI. Individual- or team- work on tasks and projects agreed with the main lecturer (e.g. a R&D project, real application development, cooperation with industry, or study material preparation).
    In the case of Process Mining seminar the first half of the course in the form of e-learning in cooperation with Eindhoven University of Technology, the second half is a project. The seminar will physically take place only some chosen weeks.
    In the case of Blockchain seminar the basics in both theoretical background and hands-on experience on Blockchain applications will be provided. In this regard, the seminar will focus on explaining important concepts, such as modelling blockchains, mining, smart contracts, transaction verification, and virtual identity. Furthermore, the course will introduce some existing Blockchain platforms, as for example Hyperledger Fabric. In order to apply the different concepts presented in the course, students will have hands-on sessions where they will implement and discuss the use of Blockchain in several domains, including Internet of things, finance, logistics, and health.
    Assessment methods
    In the case of LaSArIS attendance at the seminars and assessment of the results of the individual work.
    In the case of Process Mining seminar it is necessary to complete the e-learning course and present the final project.
    In the case of Blockchain seminar the attendance at the seminars and presentation of the project are required.
    Language of instruction
    Czech
