Customers and CS faculty will be invited to attend the presentations. The date/time of your presentation is on the class web page schedule link.

Project Publicity Slides

The CS department wants to publicize the CS 499 projects and the team members. Two slides (project, team members) per project will be shown on the TV monitor in the Marksbury lobby, and available from the department Facebook page. See the examples here. See example biographical sketches here, but don't include contact information. Send to me via email.

Product Delivery to the Customer and Instructor

Schedule a meeting to deliver the product to the customer and instructor April 23 through May 3. Delivery method to the customer will depend on the product and customer needs.

The project final written report is described here: project documentation

The deliverables to the instructor are described here: project deliverables

These deliverables are due when the product is demonstrated to the instructor.

The demonstration of the product can be done at the same time to the customer and instructor if possible. If not, schedule a separate meeting with each.

Product delivery must be done by Thursday May 3. My time is scheduled on a first come/first serve basis. See my schedule at:

·       Describe any problems your team had dealing with the customer

Provide at least a paragraph about each team member's role/activities on the project. The purpose of this is not to make yourself look good compared to your teammates, but to honestly list what each team member did on the project. It is the nature of projects that each member performs different roles. It is sufficient that you performed your assigned role on the project.

The information that you provide will be used by the computer science department to assess our program. If submitted by Monday April 30 -50%, after that 0.

Note: It is optional to provide the data fro some questions, for example starting salary. All the questions provide total statistical data on the graduating class. No individual data on students are kept. However if you object to providing any of the data, and the form forces you to enter the data, you can refuse to take the survey. Send me email stating that you do not want to take the survey, and you get credit for Assignment 6.
