COMP6021 CA Results

Hi

The results of the Continuous Assessment component of this module are now available. The CA accounts for 20%. The remaining 80% comes from the final exam.

COMP6021 Class 29 (tutorial)

No one turned up

SOFT6001 Week 11

We had a tutorial. A good number of students turned up, but they didn't have a lot of questions.

The exam will be next week. We will start at 1815.

COMP6021 Class 28 (tutorial)

Nobody came.

CMOD6001 Class 29

We had the world premieres of the lip dub videos. I was impressed.

This was our last class.

Good luck with your exams. I will see you all again soon, depending on which modules you are taking.

CMOD6001 Class 28

Some students met groups to make some decisions about their videos. I didn't want to see the videos, because I want to be surprised tomorrow.

COMP6021 Class 27 (tutorial)

Nobody turned up, so I went away.

COMP6021 Class 26

We had a whistle stop tour of some of the topics we should have discussed in more detail but didn't. So at least now there are no "unknown unknows", just "known unknows".

All subsequent classes will be tutorials. So bring questions.

CMOD6001 Presentation Names

Could someone from each group e-mail me the names of the students in their group. I just want to make sure I have everything correct.

If you missed any one of the two days you should e-mail Colin explanation. Failure to do so will cost both you and your group marks.

CMOD6001 Class 27

Presentations. They were all good.

Afterwards I met with groups. Projects seem to be on track

CMOD6001 Class 26

Presentations. Went well

COMP6021 Class Canceled

This afternoon's class is canceled. I feel like crap and I'm going home to bed. There is only so much caffeine and paracetamol you can down, before you have to eventually admit defeat.

COMP6021 Final

The exam for this module will be at 1000 on 15 December 2010 in the CIT Sports Hall.

ITS / ITM APS CA Results

CA results for ITS/ITM SOFT6001 Algorithmic Problem Solving are here:
2010-SOFT6001-ITS3.pdf

Some students have almost passed already and so do not need to score well in the final exam. Others need more than a pass in the final to pass over all.

The column NEEDS specifies what students need to score in the final assessment to be sure of a pass mark.

COMP6021 Class 25

We looked at block matching algorithms for motion compensated video compression. Mostly because I know all about it and think it's cool. Now 10 more people know all about it, but the number of people who think it's cool is unchanged.

We probably will discuss only a few more things in the next class. The rest of classes will be given over to tutorials.

SOFT6001 Withdrawals

Some students have done a runner. This is fine.

If you do a runner though, make sure to formally withdraw from the module. If you do not withdraw then CIT will, quite rightly, want its money. And should you want to stay on at CIT, you will, quite rightly, be expected to pay up before progressing.

So it makes sense to do the paperwork.

EV.COM1 APS SOFT6001 Cancelled

There is no Algorithmic Problem Solving class this Thursday night.

Apologies for the short notice

CMOD6001 Class 25

We were supposed to have presentations today but the group wasn't ready.

We might fit them in another day.

Students had ad hoc group meetings and the class rep got some SU related issues sorted.

COMP6021 JPEG Compression Ratios

You can see the effects of JPEG compression by saving this TV test pattern at various quality settings. Pay particular to the line patterns and the edges. You'll need to convert it to RGB mode after opening.
