Transcript

[slide15] Register your topics by the 29th, you can submit it by Canvas, say who the group members are, form a group. The paper is not long, it's designed to basically be about ten pages. What you would typically be submitting if it was a conference paper. Now, why not say, oh, six or eight pages? Well, you don't have to work that hard. Taking ten or twelve pages and turning them into the actual six or eight pages for a real conference submission will take, by itself, a week or more. You don't need to do that in this course. You need to show the contribution by every member of the group, and you should clearly describe what you've done, who did what. And if you've done some implementation measures, you should make sure you provide enough information that somebody else could repeat it. Because this should be a good scientific report. The final reports are due on the 20th of October, and then we'll schedule oral presentations during week 43. And there's a small enough number of you, we can basically schedule them so they fit your time needs, so don't worry about conflicts with other courses.
