Fall 2004
Homework
Homework #1
(due 3:30pm CDT, Monday, September 20, 2004).
Read and present a paper
For this assignment, you will read a research paper and present it
in class. Each presentation will be 30 minutes long, with 10 minutes
for questions and discussion. You may choose a paper that you will
be working on as part of your project.
To bid for a paper to present, please select at least five
candidates from the list below, order them by decreasing preference,
and email your list to me. Note that some related short papers are
packaged together (you'll need to present both). Also, please send me
the four available presentation dates ordered by decreasing preference.
Bidding deadline is Monday, October 4. In case of identical
preferences, earlier bids will get priority.
