Activities
organized by the Algorithmics group
The Tutorials in Algorithm Design are introductory talks of about an hour by experts in a specific field of Algorithm Design. Everyone interested is invited to attend these.
The Agent colloquium consists of talks of about an hour by experienced researchers. Everyone interested is invited to attend these.
The lunch talks are talks during lunch time. These talks are mainly aimed at members of the Algorithmics group, including Masters students, but also people from other groups are welcome. This is a forum for interesting work in progress where you are allowed to eat your lunch.
The Journal Club is a meeting to discuss recent journal papers. This activity is mainly aimed at CABS members, including Masters students. The Journal Club Log wiki keeps track of which papers have been and are going to be discussed.
The monthly master's meetings are meetings with all the master's students of this group to stimulate exchange of ideas and experiences.
Reserve your beamer through Google calendar.
If you are a Master's student of our group, make sure you are subscribed to the algmasters mailing list to be updated on all these activities. Anyone else interested in the CABS colloquium please subscribe to the cabscolloquium mailing list.
Tutorials in Algorithm Design
The Tutorials in Algorithm Design are introductory talks of about an hour (excluding questions) by experts in a specific field of Algorithm Design. In 2011 we plan to ask well known researchers in fields such as mechanisn design for online scheduling, planning for logistic systems, tree decomposition, combinatorial optimization, etc. Everyone is invited to attend these. We aim for such a talk once every two months.
This series of tutorials is organized by Mathijs de Weerdt. Please contact him for more information.

Lunch talks
The lunch talks are organized in Delft to enhance cooperation within the Algorithmics group. It is usually held during lunch time on Thursdays. A lunch talk is not a lunch, but a talk!
Announcements will be sent through the cabs_info mailing list. This includes all staff members and students in our group.
These lunch talks are usually organized by Tomas Klos. Please contact him for more information.
Usually we schedule 1:00h for a talk, including questions. Click titles to see abstracts.

Journal Club
Within Algorithmics we do not only research collaborative agents, we are collaborative agents ourselves. The journal club is one of the means to realize this collaboration.
In principle, each member of the Algorithmics group is also a member of this journal club. We meet once every four to eight weeks to discuss the most interesting journal paper(s) (also for the others) we have read in these weeks. So what do you need to do?
  1. Choose a (journal) paper you have read recently for discussing in the journal club. If you have not read a paper yet, please click on a recent date from the list at the journal club page of the CWI, or on the list from our library. Try to select a paper on your own research topic that may also be interesting for some of the other members.
  2. Add this paper to the list at the Journal Club Log wiki preferrably before the actual meeting. If there are more than 6 papers, the first 6 papers that have been added are invited to be presented the next day. The others are moved to the next meeting.
  3. Prepare yourself to give a brief summary (about five minutes) of the main results of the paper. (We do not expect slides.)
  4. In the meeting, in turn, each member gets the opportunity to summarize his or her paper. Also try to give your opinion on the paper. After that, others may ask some questions (about five minutes). If you can't answer them all, that's ok: if it is interesting, others can (of course) decide to read the paper as well.
Master's students are also very much encouraged to come and participate in the discussion. They are not expected (but are definitely allowed!) to present a paper themselves.
A reminder will be given through the cabs_info mailing list.
