Course contents

MATHEMATICS (Prof. Chiara Guidi)

Modulo I

The real numbers. Differential calculus for functions of one real variable. Exponential and logarithmic functions. Trigonometric functions. Limits and continuity. Derivatives, monotony, local maxima and minima.

Modulo II

Integral calculus for functions of one real variable: primitive and integral, techniques of integrations (by parts, by substitution). First-order differential equations. Higher-order and systems of differential equations.

COMPUTER SCIENCE (Prof. Flavio Bertini e Francesco Poggi)

Theory

* The tools (computation systems, data acquisition, operating systems, networks)

Practice
* Introduction to programming
* Network-based applications (HTTP, HTML, server-side applications in Python)
