These short-presentations allow groups of students (or individual students) to explore a new tool or system and present it to their fellow students in a conscise and clear manner. All presentations are required to follow a specific structure that will be outlined in this page. For each presentation you are required to build a small application that demonstrates the features of the language, tool or system you aim to present. The title of each application is outlined next to each application.The presentations will be logged under this page in order to allow easy access to other students and practitionaires that want to explore the respective tool, language or technology.

All presentations need to adhere to the following strict rules:
All sources (presentation & demo sources) should be turned-in using Moodle.
Στόχος των σύντομων παρουσιάσεων είναι να επεξηγήσετε στο ακροατήριο τα σημαντικότερα στοιχεία του εργαλείου ή της βιβλιοθήκης που καλείστε να παρουσιάσετε. Υποθεστε ότι το ακροατήριο ήδη γνωρίζει τις έννοιες του μαθήματος, αλλά όχι συγκεκριμένες πληροφορίες για το αντικείμενο που θα παρουσιάσετε. Οι σημειώσεις πρέπει να είναι πολύ σαφείς και αυτό-επεξηγηματικές, εφόσον οι συμφοιτητές σας θα τις πάρουν για να δοκιμάσουν το συγκεκριμένο εργαλείο στο σπίτι. Σημειώστε ότι το περιεχόμενο των παρουσιάσεων θα αποτελέσει μέρος της εξεταστέας ύλης. Πιο κάτω σας δίδεται ένα γενικό πλάνο το οποίο μπορείτε να ακολουθήσετε.
Αυτό είναι ένα από τα δυο κυριότερα μέρη της παρουσίασης. Εδώ θα πρέπει να δείξετε τις διαφορές δυνατότητες του εργαλείου (ή βιβλιοθήκης), αυτές οι οποίες κάνουν το εργαλείο (ή βιβλιοθήκη) τόσο ξεχωριστό/ή. Για κάθε δυνατότητα, αναμένετε να παρουσιάσετε τόσο την ιδέα (εντολή), ένα μικρό πρόγραμμα και το αποτέλεσμα της εκτέλεσης του προγράμματος. Αυτό θα δώσει την δυνατότητα στους συμφοιτητές σας να εκτιμήσουν την πολυπλοκότητα χρήσης του εργαλείου ή της βιβλιοθήκης. Εννοείται ότι δεν είναι τόσο σημαντικό να κατανοήσουν την κάθε επί μέρους εντολή των παραδειγμάτων σας, παρά μόνο να πάρουν μια αρκετά καλή ιδέα για το τι μπορεί να επιτευχθεί με τον συγκεκριμένο κώδικα.
Αυτό είναι το δεύτερο κυριότερο μέρος της παρουσίασης. Αναφέρατε συνοπτικά το θέμα του προγράμματος που κληθήκατε να υλοποιήσετε, ευκολίες/δυσκολίες με την εν λόγω γλώσσα/πλατφόρμα/σύστημα, σύντομα στατιστικά (π.χ., πόσες γραμμές κώδικα χρειαστήκατε, πόσο χρόνο σας πήρε η υλοποιήση, κτλ), ο κώδικας των κυριοτέρων κομματιών της υλοποίησης σας, screenshots εκτέλεσης και οτιδήποτε άλλο θεωρήσετε σημαντικό.
Παρακαλώ συμβουλευθείτε τον ακόλουθο οδηγό στην προετοιμασία της παρουσίασης σας.
PowerPoint Presentation Tips: tips.
Special thanks to Prof. Michalis Faloutsos, Univ. of California, for the following points (source)
Η βαθμολόγηση της παρουσίασης θα γίνει βάση όλων των πιο πάνω κριτηρίων, δηλαδη: Παρουσίαση, Περιεχόμενο, Μορφοποίηση και του Προγράμματος επίδειξης. Σημειώστε ότι είναι παραίτητη προϋπόθεση να είναι κατανεμημένος ισοδύναμα ο χρόνος ομιλίας μεταξύ των μελών της ομάδας κατα τη διάρκεια της παρουσίασης.
Καλή Επιτυχία!
