CS509-S04 Class Schedule

The following table shows the class schedule, by week, and the topics for the classes. While there may be some adjustment in the schedule as the term progresses, I will try to stick to the schedule as much as possible. Click on the link on the date for a class to view the slides used that day.

If you click on the links for the discussion of the readings, you will find some questions and other text that might help you prepare for the discussion.

I reserve the right to alter the schedule as necessary.
