CSC2125:
Modeling Methods, Tools and Techniques
Winter 2018
Term Project
Description
Your
project is worth 50% of your final grade. There are several types of
projects that can be carried out.
Projects can be done alone or in a team of up to two people (where the
expectations would be higher).
Deliverables are:
·
A written report (no more than 10 pages in ACM conf. style)
·
A copy of any software developed as part of your
project, documented using JavaDoc, and with a short (1 page) usage guide
·
In-class project presentation + demo (if applicable)
·
A copy of all case studies developed, if applicable
·
Completed MMINTuser experience form, if
applicable
If your project is an open research problem, your
report should include an introduction to and motivation of the research
problem, a clear and concise discussion of related work, and descriptions of
your methodology and results.
If you have done a development project you need to
include an introduction to the relevant background – with citations, a
description of the problem, description of the tool customization/development
you have performed, some examples to demonstrate its behavior, description of
results, insights and lessons learned. Your usage guide should explain how to
build and configure the tools and how to run/repeat your case studies.
