Overall Guidelines

A number of papers that are appropriate are provided on the InterestingPapers page. However, this list is not exclusive. If you find an additional paper you would like to present, add it to the InterestingPapers page and then select it below.

Each week we will have more then one presentation. Each pair of students will present a paper. The presentation will take between 10 and 15 minutes including questions from the class. You should prepare both the slides explaining the main results from the paper as well as some discussion questions to ask the class in order to prompt thought and discussion on the topic.

Students who are not presenting that day are responsible for reading the days papers and being prepared to ask questions and make comments about it.

I would like the papers to be grouped into similar topics being presented on the same day. So everyone who wants to talk about IDS's will need to do their presentations on the same day.

When you select a paper, please fill in the table below for the date of your presentation with both of your names, a link to your slides, and the papers' title, author and a link to the pdf.

If you do not have a partner for the presentation, just enter your own name. If you see someone else has chosen a paper you like, feel free to add your name to the timeslot.

Slide Details

Your presentation should consist of only 4 slides. They must be:

• Slide 1: Title of paper with cite and your names as presenters
• Slide 2: Short paragraph or bullets summarizing the main topic and ideas of the paper. This may also include an image from the paper.
• Slide 3: At least 1 graphic image from the paper (table of results, figure, charts, diagram, etc) illustrating what you think is the most interesting, complex, or important idea in the paper. If you are comparing several graphical results and can not fit them all on 1 slide while remaining readable, you can extend Slide 3 to actually be several slides, each one with one of the related graphics.
• Slide 4: A few points of your own critiquing the paper and explaining how you would apply the ideas or results in the paper to some real world security problem.

You must upload your slides to the website prior to the class during which you will present them, we will then download them to the classroom computer in order to display them.
