Project submission : By May 3 and May 17, students
should submit a status report on their progress towards completing
the projects. There will be a poster session
on the day of the final (June 4 from 12:00-3pm). This poster
session will mimic a real conference poster session. Each student
will have 4-5 paper slides summarizing their project and will run
demos to session participants. This session will be advertised to the
School of Engineering.
Before the poster session, students will have a dry-run of their demo
to the instructor and the TA. They will also present their slides for
the poster session. These dry-runs will be scheduled between May 31st
and June 3rd .
