Information Science deals with information systems in the large and is based on an understanding of information systems as the interplay between technological components and humans in distributed contexts. In order to assess characteristics of such systems, a differentiated terminology and specialized technological instruments are needed.
This course sheds a light on the assessment of large information systems from multiple conceptual angles and on different levels of granularity.
In the tutorial part of the course, fundamental technological approaches for realizing integrated distributed systems will be applied by the participants in practical case-studies.
