Software Institute | The center of excellence for teaching, research, and development of software part of USI, Lugano.

Seminari

Da febbraio 2019, l’Istituto del Software ha iniziato una serie di seminari. Ogni giovedì pomeriggio, un ricercatore dell’Istituto terrà un breve discorso su un argomento di ingegneria del software a sua scelta, come ad esempio articoli interessanti pubblicati di recente, articoli seminali nel proprio campo di ricerca, discussioni su idee preliminari, tutorial e piccoli esperimenti.

Sulla nostra playlist YouTube potete riguardare alcuni dei seminari precedenti. Di seguito trovate ulteriori dettagli sul prossimo seminario, su quelli a venire e un archivio dei relatori precedenti.

Tutti sono invitati a partecipare ai seminari organizzati dall’Istituto del Software.

Prossimo Relatore: Valerie Burgener
