SOUHLAS
In the request for SOUHLAS please indicate whether you are interested in the Lasaris or Agile seminar. Do not be discouraged by the request for SOUHLAS, it only helps us to regulate the capacity of the mentioned seminars.
In the case of the Lasaris seminar, we expect interest in the activities of the Lasaris lab, i.e. the areas of design, development and operation of large and critical systems with high importance of their quality.
In the case of the "Intro to Agile" seminar, we expect interest in the topic.

Course objectives

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. Additionally, external specialists, especially from the IT industry or from abroad, are invited to talk within the seminar.

In the Fall 2024 semester, PV226 will host one separate specialized seminar, "Intro to Agile", with the following focus:

The aim of the "Intro to agile approach" seminar is to provide students with basic information about agility and its application in companies of various sizes. Students will learn the agile approach, values and principles, as well as various agile methodologies and their use in practice. They will learn the concepts of agile software development, advantages and disadvantages of the agile approach compared to the "waterfall" method. Seminar will focus in more detail on the Scrum framework, its values, roles and meaning individual ceremonies. In addition, students will be introduced to agile leadership, agile transformations and SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework). The seminar will include practical examples, exercises/simulations, as well as discussions and interactions with practitioners. In this way, students prepare for effective use of agile methods in their future career in a dynamic and fast the changing IT 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.
