Lecture notes from the lecturers.
Students who cannot attend the lectures are requested to solve all the exercises proposed in the class, downloadable from the web page of the course, and an additional project which will be proposed directly by the lecturers.
Assessment is performed through the correctness of the exercises proposed in the class during the lectures, and through the individual work performed at home.
