You will present your projects on Tuesday, 27 January 2004. The time schedule is given below.

All team members or team representatives should present the projects in the lab.

You may need to find a good name for your project if you have not given one name yet.

Please re-read the Notes for Demonstrations and Project Reports section.

The grading for the project:
Survey Paper                                               20
Project Report                                             25
Submitted Code and Its Documentation     35
Demonstration                                             20
 

You are responsible for all the materials presented in class in the final exam.

There may be some questions about writing small code samples on network programming.

The final will be a closed book exam, but you can bring 1 page (A4) to the exam.

You can write anything you want to two sides of the page. You can not take a copy of your friend's hand written page.
 

The information about the final exam will be posted on Saturday, 10 January.

After the final exam all project teams are required to talk to me about your project progress in my office and in the computer lab if you have a partial working prototype to show me before the final demo.
 

The deadline for demonstration and submission of the final report and the project code and its documentation was postponed because of incompleteness of your projects and your other course works.

You can finish your project work until all project completeness requirements are finished within final weeks.

The current last deadline is 28 January 2004, Wednesday. But this deadline is subject to small changes, like it may be 22 January. It will be finalized soon.

Try to finish your project work and demo early, since the early finishers will get higher grades.
 

Before your final demo, you should have shown your project to me at least once and later submitted your project report.

You will get an appointment for your demo after you have submitted your Project Report.

You will show your network projects on real network platforms. For example, if your application needs a web server, you have to install a web server and deploy your application to the server. If your application needs mobile devices, like mobile phones, you should try to find these devices.

Network applications will not be run in the JBuilder and in their development and simulation environments.

After your real demo, we'll talk about the project details on the JBuilder project using your project reports.

You can download the Project Report template from here.

Please try to read and follow all best practices and advices on good coding style, design and documentation given on Software Design and Documentation page.
 

Tomorrow (31-December 2003) you are required to talk to me about your project progress during the class hour in my office and in the computer lab if you have a partial working prototype to show me before the final demo.

Before the final demo, you should have shown the first version of your software and other work products to me.

The demo dates: 7, 8, and 9 January (Morning), 2003. These are final dates, no time extension!

The Javadoc style code documentation and strictly following java code conventions are required in your final documentation.

UML class diagrams must be also generated by using Together to show the static software architecture. The sequence, and activity diagrams for some important object interactions and activities are also needed for the dynamic model.

A short word document (Project Report) is also required for the final documentation.

I will write more about the final documentation this week.
 

The midterm exam is closed book and notes.

The sample questions for the exam are given here.
 

Important dates and deadlines:
12 December, Friday: Deadline for Survey Paper and Project Proposal
17 December, Wed.: Midterm Exam
19 December, Friday: Deadline for HW3
 

Some Internet sources for searching and finding papers related to this course are listed here.
 

This is definitely an individual assignment. A team work will not be tolerated. If a similar solution is found in assignments, those will get a 0 grade!

If you cheat, you hurt yourself and your personal integrity !
