Projects

The second half of the semester (or earlier if you wish), you will work on a project that will consist of several components and/or requirements.

Pick a partner to create a pair.
Pick a topic from the list below.
Write a Latex tutorial which will introduce somebody with a CS background to the topic you've picked. You need to include an introduction that sets the background for your pick, a series of simple examples (all of which you will need to demonstrate you have run), a section on performance, and an assessment on the future of the technology you covered. This document must contain a list bibliography.
Do a 1-hour presentation to the class, with slides, where you will introduce the class to the technology you have picked. This 1-hour presentation should include (if possible) a mini-lab that will allow everybody in class to run a few programs that will be using the technology you picked.
