19-May-2013:
I have now received most of your project reports. Three reports were late (within 24h after submission deadline) and thus receive a penalty. I will not read (and mark) any reports coming in after 19:00 on May 19. The project presentation schedules for each lab group are available under Section 'Labs' (Lab6) in the course wiki.
13-May-2013:
This is a gentle reminder for everybody working on the project. ALL project reports have to be submitted as PDF files via the submit button on the course wiki at the latest on Friday, May 17, at 19:00. Please submit only one file per project group and make sure that all group members are mentioned as authors in the report. Please use the IEEE template following the instructions given. Not using the template will result in reduced marks.
The submission date of the project report is equal for all and thus independent from your lab group number. Next week, all lab groups (including group 4 - Playtech) will do lab 6 (i.e., project presentation). Please bring you presentation slides to the lab meetings next week. If you don't have a computer, bring your presentation on some storage device (ideally USB stick) or make it available otherwise, so you can present using my computer. I will bring a Windows 7 computer. I have MS Office and OpenOffice installed on my computer. (I will not bring my Mac).
