Project Proposals

(groups)

Each proposal should be presented with slides that describe

- the problem (strongly recommended to use a running example to clarify),

- brief summary of relevant related work

- tentative proposed solution(s),

- envisioned  challenges

- tentative workplan and timeline

One of the purposes of this presentation is to get feedback from the class, so feel free to mention specific points on which you may want this feedback.

Plan for about 10' of presentation.

The 3-page proposal mentioned in the syllabus (containing the same info as above) will not be due until Friday end of the day

7 Final project Presentation

Class might last until 1:45 latest

-  maximum 20' presentation time per group, plus time for questions

- After the first 3 groups, we will take a break and move to room ICICS/CS 104.

- The two  remaining groups will present here

 

Make sure that your presentation includes

- the problem you are addressing and how it is related to the course

- clear positioning of your project with respect to related work

- your proposed solution

- evaluation, if any.

- discussion of contributions

- limitations

- possibilities for future work.

These last two points are very important. A good discussion here can compensate for limitations in  what you actually managed to do.
