Distributed Systems
Modern applications are increasingly built as distributed systems composed of multiple interconnected components that communicate over networks. This introduces challenges such as concurrency, partial failures, and consistency, requiring specialized concepts and approaches. In this seminar, we cover the fundamental principles and building blocks of distributed systems, including key concepts, algorithms, and architectures. We also explore how these elements are used in practice and how to analyze, evaluate, and apply modern distributed systems middleware.

Real-time Analytics on Big Data
With the vision of Internet of Things (IoT) gaining popularity at a global level, the requirements of modern applications have become very demanding. The multitude of distributed components communicating in such applications, their dynamic behavior patterns, and the huge volumes of generated data demand the need for efficient event-based middleware systems that can process, analyze, and disseminate data at real-time in a distributed setting. As a result, in this seminar, we explore stream processing, complex event processing, publish/subscribe, and distributed graph processing systems capable of performing real-time analytics on big data.

Digital Twins and Their Use Cases (Research Seminar)
Digital twins are revolutionizing various industries by enabling real-time simulation, monitoring, and optimization of physical systems through their virtual counterparts. Given their far-reaching impact and rapid adoption, they are becoming a cornerstone of next-generation intelligent systems. The potential application of digital twins spans various domains, including smart cities, smart homes and buildings, smart manufacturing, smart logistics, and smart agriculture, among others. This seminar targets different topics around the structure and function of Digital Twins as well as their use cases.
