The primary objective of this seminar is to engage students in the active, critical analysis of scientific literature and to foster academic discussion. The seminar focuses specifically on current trends and developments in the field of system software. Every participant will get the chance to steer the direction of his contributions. Participants will analyze multiple research papers and present them to the seminar group. Students should expect to read a substantial volume of scientific literature intensively. We explicitly encourage students to use AI tools such as ChatGPT and other LLMs, and we will attempt to discussion and the limitations of these tools throughout the seminar.
