Registration for Exam

7 janeiro 2021, 19:07 Carlos Ribeiro

Dear Students, 


It is very important that you register for exam, so that we can plan the logistics that minimize COVID-19 dissemination.

According with the official data, the probability that one of you is infected with COVID-19 is ~43%. But, given the asymptomatic nature of most infections, the probability that one of us is infected should be more than 60%. This is a tremendous number that shows that only with luck we are not going to share the space with at least one infected person.

To prevent the dissemination I urge you to be extra careful both in the process of entering and exit the room and in the room. Respect the distances, because math don't lie.

The exam will be held mainly in the dinning hall of the math building (there is one other smaller room), which is a large enough place to respect the distances but has only one door. So entering and leaving the room will require extra care.

Soon, I'll describe the process that I envisage for an orderly entry and exit.

Don't forget to register and be careful.

Regards
Carlos

Dear Students, 


The planned Friday's Q&A will be postponed to the afternoon. Instead of 9:30 it will start at 14:30. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

The Thursday Q&A will run, as scheduled, at 9:30.

PS: I have added two new exams to the list of past exams and update the group of slides 9-AdvancedCriptoProtocols to have a more precise match with the videos of the classes.



Project Discussions: Remote Participation Allowed under Conditions

5 janeiro 2021, 14:35 António Manuel Raminhos Cordeiro Grilo

Some students have rightfully manifested their worries regarding the current pandemic situation (we seem to be at the start of a third wave), proposing that the project discussions should be done remotely, without need or physical presence at the IST campus. The professors are sensitive to this argument. As such, THE STUDENTS ARE ALLOWED TO PARTICIPATE REMOTELY, PROVIDED THAT THEY KEEP THEIR CAMERA AND MICROPHONE ACTIVE THROUGHOUT THE ZOOM SESSION. This also applies to the students who, because of some special condition, had already been given permission to participate remotely.


The students who don't have microphone or camera, or who use to experience bad network connectivity, are still required to present themselves physically as previously announced (see the disclaimer).

DISCLAIMER: the professors will not take the responsibility for any malfunctions in the students' equipment or network conditions.
