Prerequisites	Basic programming in Java or Python
Skills to be acquired in this module	Goal of this module is to teach mathematical and methodological foundations of energy informatics and for conducting large-scale simulation studies Professional competence The students: know methods to analyze black-box objective functions recognize the relation between precision and reliability of expected results and the necessary surplus effort know methods to determine cause-effect relations between input parameters with small numbers of simulations (experiments) evaluate the significance of simulation results characterize (distributed) algorithms by their properties transfer proving techniques to distributed problems Methological competence The students: choose suitable statistical methods to interpret simulation results apply methods from design of experiments apply significance tests to compare algorithms generate arbitrarily distributed input data present results from algorithm evaluation statistically sound Social competence The students: discuss the own algorithm choice present their results and discuss with other students Self-competence The students: reflect their own usage of the scarce resource energy reflect problems and uncertainties when using statistical methods recognize the limits of simulation studies and their responsibility for choosing correct statistical methods accept criticism and understand it as a suggestion for the further development of their own actions
