Projects will include an experimental part and a written presentation. I have reserved the last week of class for oral project presentations. The oral presentation will count as part of the project grade. Homework Much of the material in this class is theoretical so there will be a significant number of problems assigned from the book. An understanding of the theoretical background is fundamental to effective utilization of parallel machines.
Homework is due Fridays in class.
I expect you to follow the honor code including the dress and grooming standards. You can work together in groups on the homework and laboratories from a conceptual perspective, but the answers that you give and the programs that you write should be your own, not copies of other students work. Your project report should focus on your own ideas and things you have learned from your experimentation. It should not be a summary of other researchers ideas. You should carefully reference other authors ideas and make sure that you quote their words and reference their ideas.
