Announcements
·
#17 (Mar 12) – Announcement #16 is cancelled. Due to
coronavirus, I will not be traveling next week. So, the SYSC 5608 lectures will
take place next week on March 17 and 19.
·
#16 (Mar 10) – There will be no SYSC
5608 lectures next week (March 17 and 19). The make-up lectures will take place
on Tuesday, April 7, and Thursday, April 9. The final exam is on Monday, April
20 (9:00 am – 12:00 noon).
·
#15 (Mar 10) – SYSC 5608 Term Exam II will take place next
Thursday, on March 12. This will be a 100-min exam. Please try to arrive at
8:15 am. I plan to start at 8:20 am; the exam will end at 10:00 am. The exam
will take place in the course lecture room in Southam
Hall.Similar to the first term exam, you can bring a
one-page (one-sided) aid-sheet; you can write anything on the aid-sheet. I plan
to ask 4 questions; three from the first term exam material and one from the
topics covered after the first term exam.
·
#14 (Mar 09) – Term Exam 1 solutions prepared by the fellow
classmates, Hongzhao Zheng, Mohamed Hozayen, and Dana
Haj Hussein, are posted above.
·
#13 (Mar 04) – Voluntary TA Mohamed Hozayen will be hosting a
study group session for Term Exam 2 this Friday, on March 6, during 2:00-4:00
at 7035 MC (or in the seating area on that floor).
·
#12 (Feb 19) – As I stated in the email I sent on Feb 15, I will count the better of the two term
exams towards the final grade. That is, if a student does well in Term Exam 2,
I will not count his/her Term Exam 1. I plan to make Term Exam 2 a longer exam
(perhaps 100 mins) which will cover everything from
the beginning. The exam can take place be on Mar 3, 5, or 10; we will decide
the date together. The best way to get ready for Term Exam 2 is to start by
solving Term Exam 1 (note: two-thirds of the Term Exam 2 questions will
be from the concepts covered until Term Exam).
·
#11 (Feb 12)
– The one-page aid-sheet for the exam tomorrow should be one-sided.
