EE-580: Introduction to the design of space mechanismsSpace environment is different from what we can experience on Earth, requiring specific design approaches in order to achieve reliable operations. Engineers must hence face new challenges stimulating their creativity to tackle those particular constraints. ...
CS-320: Computer language processingWe teach the fundamental aspects of analyzing and interpreting computer languages, including the techniques to build compilers. You will build a working compiler from an elegant functional language into machine code using a popular backend called LLVM (htt ...
ME-474: Numerical flow simulationThis course provides practical experience in the numerical simulation of fluid flows. Numerical methods are presented in the framework of the finite volume method. A simple solver is developed with Matlab, and a commercial software is used for more complex ...
CS-101: Advanced information, computation, communication IDiscrete mathematics is a discipline with applications to almost all areas of study. It provides a set of indispensable tools to computer science in particular. This course reviews (familiar) topics as diverse as mathematical reasoning, combinatorics, disc ...
EE-334: Digital systems designStudents will acquire basic knowledge about methodologies and tools for the design, optimization, and verification of custom digital systems/hardware.
They learn how to design synchronous digital circuits on register transfer level, analyse their timing a ...
CS-550: Formal verificationWe introduce formal verification as an approach for developing highly reliable systems. Formal verification finds proofs that computer systems work under all relevant scenarios. We will learn how to use formal verification tools and explain the theory and ...
CS-290: Responsible softwareSoftware's growing importance increases engineers' responsibility to integrate ethical concerns in the design and development process. This course teaches students concrete strategies for responsible software engineering, focusing on identifying ethical is ...
EE-490(g): Lab on app development for tablets and smartphonesFocusing on the Android ecosystem, this course teaches techniques for the development of distributed mobile applications, operating on multiple heterogeneous devices (tablets / smartwatches), sensing the environment, and interfacing with the cloud. ...
CS-510: Topics in software securityMemory corruption and type safety flaws dominate the threat landscape. We will approach current research
from three dimensions: sanitization (finding flaws through runtime monitors); fuzzing (testing software
automatically); and mitigation (protecting soft ...
ME-443: Hydroacoustic for hydropower plantsIntroduction to pressure wave propagation phenomena in hydraulic circuits, water hammer calculations, transient behaviour of hydroelectric plants, 1D numerical simulation of the dynamic behaviour of Francis, Pelton and Kaplan turbines, and study of the sta ...
