Project Mechanics

CS 5/43201, Operating Systems, Summer 2006

Getting Help:

This is not a programming language course. You are required to
know C or C++. Therefore debugging will be mainily your own responsibility.
Unfortunately no code debugging support will be provided by TA or myself.
TA and I will provide you support regarding the concepts and design.
For any clarification regarding the assignment please contact me.

Cheating and Copying:

All projects have to be done individually. If a copy is caught the person
copying as well as the person copied from, both will be penalized.
So it is your responsibility to protect your work. Only exception is when
the student copied from reports in advance of a theft. Any copy
will result in ZERO grade for the assignment.

Late Submission:

To help you better manage your time around your other responsibilites, I will issue
7 coupons to each student for the entire semester. Each coupon will allow
you to submit an assignment/ project one day late without penalty. If you are
late, attach the coupon(s) with your report. Without a coupon each late submission
will cost you 5% of your score per day.

Submission:

Include your identity in every file in the following format:

/****************************************************
Name:
Date:
Project/Question Number:
CS 5/43201, OS, Spring 2006
Instructor: KHAN, KSU
*****************************************************/
Make sure that it is commented when included in a source file.

Mail all files into one package using the following procedure:

%shar pa1.cc pa2.cc .. type all file names seperated by space here .... > shar.project
%elm –s “Project 1 for type your name here” hyang@mcs.kent.edu < shar.project

Keep a copy of all the files including shar.project.

Do not modify them afterward. If need arises, TA may want to check these files.
Any modification afterward reflected in the file date will result in late submission penalty.
