6. 6 Organization of the course 15 CATS (7.5 ECTS) Term 1 MEng, MSc ~ 20 1-hour lectures, 10 seminars – distinction somewhat blurred Exam at the end: 2 hours Rules of the game: –Read material given to you extra – papers, etc. –Read also comments on the slides and additional reading material (papers, etc.). –Presence is optional, but beware: slides-only are NOT ENOUGH to learn from for the exam; you need to participate, take your own notes, self-study!

7. 7 Overlaps and sequencing Form: optional Prerequisites –None directly, but XML, XHTML, DB, Programming, etc. skills are useful

8. 8 Purpose of this course introduce you to advanced concept in web-based systems, such as Adaptive Hypermedia, Adaptive Web-based systems, authoring of adaptive Hypermedia, the Semantic Web and its applications and the Social web and its applications.

9. 9 Scope of CS 411 A selection of topics on dynamic web-based systems What this course is not: –This course is not an exhaustive course on these topics –This course has no labs, so it is based on lectures, self-study and interaction at seminars
