New announcements will be posted here in reverse chronological order.

Sun Dec 27 09

• The marks for the final exam are available on ePost
• I will not be in my office this coming week, there will be crews removing the plants in the CSEB atrium and so the building (and my office) are off limits. If you have any concerns see me the following week or e-mail me.

MON Dec 14 09

The Quiz 3 (and Quiz Total) results have been uploaded to ePost. The marked Quizzes can be picked up from my office (CSEB 1012U) or from the School of Engineering front desk.

SAT Nov 21 09

Professor Roumani has scheduled an additional make-up lab session on December 7th because of the problems with the lab computers this past week. See his message as follows:

“I realize that several students either work or have other courses on Tuesdays and, hence, cannot make up the Monday session that was missed for technical reasons. I have been trying since to find a solution and just reached one. Please inform the students, perhaps thru the course site, that there will be an additional lab session on Monday Dec 7 (7-10 pm as usual) for those who normally come on Mondays. Space permitting, the TA will also accommodate Tuesdays students.”

Wed Nov 17 09

The final exam (yes there will be a final exam!) has been scheduled for Sunday, December 20, 2009, 14:00 - 17:00 CLH A (Curtis Lecture Hall A)

Tue Nov 17 09

Prof. Roumani has reported back on the issue with the lab computers during last night's lab:

“The technical staff looked into this and found that yesterday's labtest mode was dropped by mistake from their schedule.

Students of yesterday's session are advised to do their Lab-M next Monday and to do their LabN (and any other lab they missed) either next Tue or on Mon Nov 30th or on Tue Dec 1st.”

• Just wanted to thank all of you who came out yesterday and helped me out with the Photovore competition. It was the first time we had give this kind of challenge to the highschools so that may partially explain why there weren't quite as many participating schools as I was anticipating.
• It was great having the help though and the organizing committee members that visited the event were impressed with the number of volunteers I had.

Mon Oct 12 09

• I hope everyone is enjoying their Thanksgiving. I am looking for volunteers to help me with the “Photovore” Robot competition at the YES (York Engineering and Science) Olympics this Wednesday (yes that's right the day after tomorrow!) for highschools in Ontario. Lunch and T-shirt provided - the competition lasts the whole day and will held on campus. You can volunteer to help out for some or all of the day.
• If interested please e-mail ASAP.

Wed Oct 07 09

• Just to recap the discussion we had at the end of today's lecture for everyone's benefit: The midterm is NOW Wednesday October 21 (WAS Monday October 19th). It will NOT cover the material from the lecture on October 19th (this will be covered in Quiz 2)

Tue Oct 06 09

• I've posted the quiz answers to the Lecture Notes page (Week of Sep 28)

Tue Sep 22, 09

• Some of you have still been complaining about the classroom and not being able to see the board, etc. I have managed to get the Registrar's Office to find us TEL 0014 that hopefully meets all of our requirements. So our lecture on Wednesday (Sep 23rd) will be there.

Fri Sep 11, 09

• Based on the first class, it looked like we were going to be fairly cramped in the original lecture room, so I have managed to get us a slightly larger room - SC 302. See you there on Monday…
