Participants of this workshop learn about various concepts of robotics in classrooms with reference to the Lego Mindstorms System. The workshop is divided in two separate parts: ROB01 and ROB2, which can be attended independently.
The first workshop ROB01 will focus on approaching the material and the supplied programming environment NXT-G, which is suited for the application in class 5 and above. Participants are also provided with various examples of project oriented teaching units.
The aim is to develop and program exemplary robot models for the use in class, to illustrate the students/pupils acquisition of skills. The outcomes of this workshop can be presented at the closing event at end of the week.

Participants of this workshop learn about various concepts of robotics in classrooms with reference to the Lego Mindstorms System. The workshop is divided in two separate parts: ROB01 and ROB2, which can be attended independently.
The second workshop ROB02 will focus on programming the robotics system with JAVA as programming language, which is suited for the application in class 10 and above or for students/pupils with previous knowledge of programming concepts. Participants are also provided with various examples of project oriented teaching units.
The aim is to develop and program exemplary robot models for the use in class, to illustrate the students/pupils acquisition of skills. The outcomes of this workshop can be presented at the closing event at end of the week.

There exist many different networks: telecommunication networks, social networks, biological networks, etc. The study and better understanding of such networks is currently a very active research topic in many different scientific disciplines and requires, among others, the modeling and simulation of very large and complex systems. In this course, we will cover the most important foundations of network modeling and simulation. We will use the simulation tool OMNeT++ to learn how to design and model large and complex network simulations and how to evaluate their results.

Wireless sensor nodes are tiny embedded devices, which are able to sense various parameters of their direct environment, such as temperature, light or humidity. They self-organize into a communication network to pre-process the gathered data and to transmit it to a final processing station. In this course, we will cover the most important theoretical foundations. We will work with some of the most widely applied sensor nodes. The goal of this course is to develop our own sensor network application, tailored to the interests and abilities of the participants.

Are you sure your website is online 24 hours a day? Do you know whether your e-mail server is working properly all the time? And what about your backup system? Since organisations and individuals are increasingly relying on ICT infrastructures it becomes more and more important to be aware of problems as early as possible and hopefully before harm has been done.
Monitoring systems like Nagios -- the Open Source industry standard in the field -- can help. In this course we will cover the basics of what network and system monitoring can (and can\'t) do for you and get hands-on practice with Icinga, a more advanced but compatible Nagios fork.
