  1. MiddlewareLab SS 2008Lab Report Christof Leng, Wesley Terpstra Databases and Distributed Systems Group Department of Computer Science Technische Universität Darmstadt

  2. The Lab Report • To be delivered in two weeks (5.8.2008) • No strict page limit • As long as necessary, as short as possible • ≈15-30 pages in a compact layout • 30% of final grade

  3. Example Table of Contents • Overview • Important(!) top-level overview • User Guide • How to use your code in future projects • Implementation • Design decisions, package descriptions, protocol, libraries • Evaluation • Reflect on what has been learned • Benchmarking / performance evaluation • which abstractions useful / decisions good • Development History • Brief(!) description of progress and problems • Appendix • Scenario definitions, configuration, etc.

  4. Hints • Show mastery of material by discussing what’s important • Language / Style • Use spell-checker • Re-read final text (of other group members too) • Don’t overuse bullet point lists • Structure • Give introductions and overviews • Do not split a single topic between different chapters • Ensure reading flow, keep logical order • Figures • Figures are great, but not every figure is interesting • Figures should match text • Figures should be readable, but not unnecessarily big

  5. Level of Detail • Overview is more important than details • Source level documentation doesn’t belong in the report (it belongs in Javadoc) • Give a good introduction for each chapter • User guide is for future developers • Enable them to use and extend your code • Brief development history • Not every task and problem, but summary

  6. Theses / Hiwi Positions • We offer BSc. / MSc. / Diploma theses topics: • BitZipper Simulation • Integration of Bitzipper in P2P applications • Unstructured Rendezvous (BubbleStorm) • …many more • We have open Hiwi positions (40-80h/month): • P2P programming (Java, C/C++) • Website Development (HTML/XML, PHP)

  7. Thank you • We’re very happy with your work • We hope you also enjoyed it • Your feedback is appreciated: • Anonymous feedback form will be sent by email • Help us to improve the course
