I participated at the International Computer Vision Summer School in Sicily last week. Lecture slides are announced to be available within one week.

I just announced a development project for bachelor students (Softwarepraktikum) at the TEWI blog. The project goal is to build a video system for recording and documenting courses to support our e-learning department. Please see the link above for details (in German) or drop me an e-mail if you are interested.

In summer 2012, I will give these two courses:

• 621.172 Distributed systems (laboratory), Monday 12-14.
• 621.401 Compiler construction (laboratory), Thursday, 10-12.

Courses will start in the week of Monday, March 5. I would be glad to see you there!

My small contribution to the Video Browser Showdown at the MMM’12 conference, entitled “A key-frame oriented video browser”, has been accepted. The preprint is available here.

To appear in: K. Schoeffmann et al. (eds.): MMM 2012, LNCS 7131, pp. 655-657, Springer, 2012.
Update: here is the official DOI.

The 4 Scrum teams finished their Reversi game (aka Othello) projects in my Software Engineering 2 course with great success. The game software developed includes features like hot seat and network modi, different levels of difficulty, speed gaming, and even voice control. Some teams agreed to make their software available online:

Team 2 user software (13 MB) / full source code (41 MB)
Team 3 user software (38 MB) / full source code (91 MB)
Team 4 user software (50 MB) / Reversi home page

Congratulations!
