The compulsory elective subjects enable students to set specialisations according to their own interests and thus apply further specialist areas of computer science or media informatics. The courses belonging to the module are announced on the intranet at the beginning of each semester.
The lecture teaches the construction of mobile media applications. The main concepts are discussed using the Android platform. In a first partt, the basic technologies and limitations of mobile devices are shown. The second part examins different development strategies like native applications, device independend abstractions and web applications. A main part of the lecture is the integration of different media types into mobile applications and the constraints the developer has to keep in mind.

Leacture with exercise
The buzzword "Cloud" represents a variety of interesting technologies which gained importance in the life of a computer science professional. Those are being collected, examined, explained and understood during the course. Primary objective is usefulness for the student, regardless of whether he acts as a cloud user, developer, administrator or even entrepreneur. Understand the broad meaning of "Cloud Computing" from a variety of perspectives: Definition, use cases, technology basics, key players, APIs, scaling, redundancy …

Students will be able to understand the fundamental concepts of software development for embedded real-time systems. In the context of this lecture, embedded systems are all computers controlled by software that are part of a larger system and whose primary function is not computing. Real-time systems also involve aspects of temporal behavior, i.e., they are systems that not only have to provide a correct answer, but also have to calculate the system answer within a predetermined and guaranteed period of time. In detail, topics from the following areas are covered: design and architecture of automotive control units, fundamentals of real-time programming, coding for data transmission, embedded C. The participants of the lecture apply their knowledge on the basis of exercises.

User Research - methods all around fictitious and real users, to to establish a "human centered approach" in projects.
Teaching contents are methods which contribute to a better understanding of people and their usage contexts, to improve the development, design and evaluation of interactive products and systems.
Following topics - in theory and praxis - will be part of the seminar:
Seminaristic lecture with practical exercises.
The course teaches practical methods of empirical software engineering and focuses on analysing and evaluating software systems in real-life use. The focus is on field and case studies that deal with the behaviour of users, the interaction with software and its technical and functional properties. By analysing authentic usage contexts, realistic insights are gained that are important for both science and industry.
Students actively participate in the planning, implementation and evaluation of a real field study, which is carried out in cooperation with the university's IDSS research institute and partners from industry. They work as part of an ongoing research project and test scientific methods in an application-oriented environment. The tasks include the systematic collection and evaluation of usage data as well as the organisational support of the study and the technical validation of the software under investigation.
Through practical experience, participants develop an in-depth understanding of the empirical investigation of software systems and their utilisation. They acquire skills in project management, in the application of empirical research methods and in software-supported data analysis. They also learn how to systematically gain scientific knowledge and critically assess its relevance for the further development and optimisation of software systems.
