Course Project

The goal of this project is to give you a taste of what it is like to do research: first you will find and refine a project topic organized around a general problem to solve, this will require some examination of related work (resulting in an annotated bibiliography); second, you will come up with an initial solution to the problem and a plan for implementing your solution; third, you will implement your plan, possibly modifying it as need be; fourth, you will evaluate your solution though some type of verification or testing process; finally, you will convey the results of your work to others both in written form and through an oral presentation.
More information about the course project will be added soon.
