"I thought your last final was Monday? My last wasn't a final but publishing a website to the WWW among several things that were due the last day of my computer class." Nope, that was the first one. Peer to Peer networking, an interesting class. We read 22 papers and wrote 1 page summaries. We had to do a presentation on 2 of them, supposedly for 30 minutes each, but usually lasting 1 to 2 hours. On the final we had to critique papers, analyze the systems and compare and contrast various approaches. This one today was on profiling and modeling semiconductor devices. My head still hurts. Oh, a class project. Yeah, those can be tough. I've seen too many go down the tubes because something happened during the crunch. I keep multiple backups, including a thumb drive, on my CS account and my EE account. If the USB port and the network is down, I am screwed, but the prof can't say I was unprepared for contingencies...
