CSC 543 - Multiprocessing & Concurrent Programming Assignment 5 Talks
Talks to be scheduled in class for May 6 Final exam session
Materials are due via D2L by end of May 6 (slides & demo code, prefer zipped, include a README.txt on how to run code).

This page is a collection of previous topics. You can do something new.
Contact me to get your topic approved.

Dr. Dale E. Parson


Each talk will run 15 minutes, including setup time & questions / answers.
Plan on talking about 12 minutes. Inform your talk by writing demo code.
The intent of the code is to familiarize yourself in a concrete way with the topic. It is demo code, not an entire application.
It does have to have at least some custom work. It cannot just be downloaded from the net.
You may download & enhance. Talk with me about the scope of the code if you are uncertain.
You do not need to write a paper. Pretend to be doing a professor's job for 12 to 15 minutes.
Grading will be on clarity of the talk, clarity of the slides with optional demo, ability to answer questions.

Grading criteria, 25% each:
    Is the work non-trivial, e.e., not just downloaded?
    Is the presentation clear?
    Are the materials complete and clear?
    Can the presenter answer questions about the project?
