Bibliography

Papers divided into possible seminar topics

Please note that the seminar list below is NOT a specification for the current instance of the course. Instead, the list should be seen as a list of possible seminar or specialization topics for which both main and additional papers are specified. You can use this bibliography to, for example, get some hints of reading to get deeper understanding of a sub-field of the course that might be treated as seminar and/or paper writing topic.

The papers are not obviously the newest or most well-known ones in the respective areas, but are selected, e.g., to have a broad basis for discussion and to be a good complement to the lectures. Therefore, the student that will present or write about a topic (specified below as a seminar topic) should always search for the latest published material in the area (and of other related material, of course). Most of the papers referred to below can be found on IEEE Xplore (see our library’s web page on “databaser”).
