Teaching method
In the lectures the course content is presented, illustrated with application examples and references to related work. The laboratory classes are intended for specification, development and presentation of the projects that deal with topics presented during the lectures. The laboratory globally corresponds to the development of a multimedia application with interface and information processing components.
Evaluation method
Two mid-term written individual tests without consultation (50%) , each test 25% + Practical component with two main deliverables: [1. Specification + State of Art 2. Code + Report] (50%) Both deliverables are jointly evaluated at the end of the project.
Minimum score: 9.5 for each component. Students approved in the project and not approved in the tests may also do a final exam, and the resulting grade replaces the grades of the tests in the final grade evaluation.
