2. 562 Final Project Possibilities
Due Sunday December 14 at noon, via ANGEL
Teams allowed but not required
Should take the average student hours
Possible Variations (not exhaustive)
More detailed literature survey project
Possible, by my least favorite (unless perhaps FT+security topic or directly helps your or your group’s research)
Programming project
You have to get your own software…. RTI DDS is possible here
Experimental evaluation project
Install some research software system
Evaluate it
Write up a report (performance, other), maybe pages
I will suggest some possibilities later
Research Design Project….
Best by far, if you have an idea to flesh out or related to your graduate studies somehow

3. Research Design Projects
Detailed writeup of an idea
In 1990 class like this my idea got an FTCS-21 paper, later PhD!!!
We can brainstorm about ideas later…. but you have to come up with your own…
Tentative timetable
Wednesday, October 22, via ANGEL (drop box “FinalProj Proposal”): 1 page max on scope, issues, etc .. pdf please
Possibly next week one half lecture, in class, discussion of projects and final topics decided (along with one student presentation for ½ the period)
Sunday December 14, noon: project reports due via ANGEL. You can demo to me that afternoon or early in finals week, if a demo is appropriate.
