Jaak Vilo, Kallol Roy Algorithmics (MTAT.03.238) is an obligatory course in the Computer Science MSc curriculum. As such it is intended to remind everyone of the foundations of algorithms and data structures but also to go beyond and teach some more advanced concepts (like succinct data structures, for example).  The course aims at linking different […]

We are currently in the process of significant changes in the communications paradigms. Among others, one of the changes is moving to cloud-based services instead of using local applications (Office365, Youtube, Spotify, etc.). We can argue about the motivation of this trend, but this allows us to provide the customers with the most up-to-date solutions […]

27. jaanuaril kulmineerus esimene üliõpilaste ja gümnasistide võistlus Delta X, kus arvutiteaduse instituut pani välja viis vägevat võistlust, millest üks keskendus isejuhtivate sõidukite tehnoloogiale. Osalejad pidid masinõpet rakendades looma tarkvara, mis paneb nende mudelauto läbima etteantud raja kõige kiiremini.  Delta X isejuhtivate sõidukite võistluse eesmärk oli pakkuda üliõpilastele ja gümnasistidele võimalust töötada tarkvaraga, mis leiab […]

On the 15th of March, our doctoral student Yauhen Yakimenka defended his PhD thesis on the intersection of two different fields of computer science: error-correction codes and compressed sensing. Most of the information on the internet is now transmitted over fibre optics. It’s extremely fast, but it comes with a price: now the erros also […]

Institute of Computer Science Professor of Engineering Dietmar Pfahl has co-authored a paper “Status Quo in Requirements Engineering: A Theory and a Global Family of Surveys”. This publication is an outcome of the NaPiRE (Naming the Pain in Requirements Engineering) project. The objective of the NaPiRE project is to establish a valid foundation for a […]
