Supervision Information (2002-03)
General Info: For
scheduling supervisions, e-mail in within your group and CC me as
well. Once we have all agreed to a time, I can then book a room for our
discussion.
It would be nice if each of you can e-mail me separately the list of
issues you find most obscure. This way, we can filter out issues that
can eventually contribute
to our available time. Just to start with get hold of past questions
papers, that will give you a reasonable idea where and what to look for
before pinning issues of investigation.
1) You
may like go through as many books or papers as possible.
2) You are encouraged to put forth any new ideas or comments that you find relevant and on points you may want to differ. 3) All sorts of inductive (or mathematical) reasoning are welcome. 4) Its good to discuss with peers, however, a blind copy (or even sort of) of someones ideas will be taken into negative. 5) Please handover your answersheets anytime before or during your next supervision. 6) Your efforts to attempt questions from the assigments yet to be lectured will be really appreciated! 7) To know more about your group members of yr. 2002-03 course, see below.
For the Michealmas Term:
As
again, I am supervising DC-II. A prerequisite for this course is DC-I, so I
would suggest skimming through the DC-I notes, at least once. If you
are in need of the DC-II lecture slides, just click here.
In addition to these slides, you may also need the slides
from Prof. Jon Crowcroft's and Dr. Ian Pratt's lecture and the past question
papers.
Feel free to get in
touch, if you have any questions and
if I can help. Here's your assignment:

For the Lent Term:
The three groups for supervision of Comparative Architectures course should have a look at the past question papers. Browsing the Part-I Computer Design notes (a prerequisite!) would help as it offers a basic understanding of what CompArch would be. For assignments, please check below. As usual, you are expected to complete your part of the assignments and deliver that in the very next supervision.
