Project proposal: A 1-2 page long written document that states the problem you are solving, proposes a solution and a timeline for attacking the problem.
Mid-semester presentation: Each team will give a 10-min long presentation of their progress half way through the semester.
Final presentation: Each team will give a 15-min long presentation of their progress since the mid-semester presentation, and describe their final solution.
Final report: An up to six page long technical report on the motivation, approach, technical solution and the evaluation of your solution.

Algorithms

This masters level algorithms course aims to refine the algorithmic thinking of a student, moving her/him from an algorithm consumer to an algorithm designer. The project-oriented course structure is tailored to facilitate the transition. The first part of the course focuses on the analysis of algorithm complexity and correctness, amortised and probabilistic analysis, while we later discuss advanced data structures, approximation algorithms, heuristic methods and biologically-inspired computing. The course also introduces computational geometry, and parallel and distributed computing.
