In the 2021/2022 winter semester, Saarland University will launch two new bachelor's degree courses that will be taught entirely in English: computer science and cybersecurity. This makes it the first state university in Germany to offer English-language bachelor's degree courses in the field of computer science. The move boosts the…
Many safety-critical areas of our lives are being controlled by computer systems: from airbag controls in cars and landing gear on airplanes to essential infrastructure such as energy supply and telecommunications. But are these systems reliable? Computer science professor Jan Reineke of Saarland University thinks not - because a crucial…
Microphones and cameras are everywhere today: in smartphones, laptops, even in refrigerators and televisions. Many people are now used to these ‚sensing devices'. As a result, they are no longer seen for what they actually are - ubiquitous eyes and ears. A team of computer scientists from Saarland University is…
A computer science master's student at Saarland University shows in his thesis how to produce high-quality fine art printings using commonly available inkjet printers. To achieve this, he has developed an algorithm that can analyze and reproduce a painting down to its optical fingerprint. In his master’s thesis, Saarland University…
