Week Seven
  • Backups? Backups for the project, and also for the demo? Backups for the backups? Did you rehearse the failure of the system, and how you will respond so that we do not know about it?
  • Check the schedule for lecture topics and demo dates.
  • Your Preview Demo is due this week. Is your code frozen? Have you rehearsed your demo? Do you have backups ?
  • Are your project booklets under development?
  • Backups?
  • We will have done significant preparation for the in-class final exam by week seven. Do you have an understanding of logical reasoning about an uncertain future? Have you studied your notes about the "correct" opinions (that is, just opinions -- were you there for the discussion?) relevant to our in-class discussions of group dynamics? See the powerpoint directory for lecture notes.
  • Can you draw a picture of the DESIGN of your project?
  • Can you give the PLAN for your project, with names, hours, rough dates, and dependencies?
  • Look over all of the Group Web Sites to make sure that yours is competitive. Is your .matrix.html file in order?
  • Check out the Spots Problem and mail me your answer.
  • Review the Individual Assessment document so that you can be prepared for this important document that will argue on your behalf.
  • I may not have mentioned backups.
