Alp: Test compatability of C code with Bob's learning code.
Problems/Comments:
Our process and file integrity on the web server created
some hurdles for us to jump. We also had to make sure that our system would
be receptive at all times, including when votes are being processed. As we
started coding, we realized that the amount of time required was a little
under-estimated. We saw this early enough, so problems.

Progress this week:
Enda:
- Coding for processing votes is done!
Check it out!
- Voting page is fully functional.
- Voting control after max votes is working.
- Ready for integration with Bob's stuff.
Bob:
- Node creation is complete.
- Copying, reading and writing of trees operational.
- Bugs need to be tweaked, but program creates usable equations!
Lynn:
- Requirements done- Good job!
- Requirements revision done.
- Schedule revision.
Alp:
- Color map mutation works! (1000+ iterations tested!)
- Color maps work with Xfractint.
- Code documented and ready for integration with bob's.
Goals for next week:
|
Enda: |
Work on Test plan, ready by Sunday.
Archiving files needs to be implemented.
Best pic window needs to be added.
|
|
Bob: |
Finish coding, start integration of major components.
Kick out the bad equations.
Think of some way to maintain equation size.
Document work.
|
|
Lynn: |
Work on documentation.
Schedule updates.
Work with Enda on Test plan.
Testing integration of components.
|
|
Alp: |
Test components, integration.
Think of/ implement algorithm to ward off bland colors.
Meet with customer, do that good PR stuff.
|
Problems/Comments:
Besides the feed back from our project description and requirements,
we have not met with our customer. We should make sure that we are all
on the same frequency.
Progress is great. The lack of problems is almost scarey.
Enthusiasm in this team rocks. Team 8 rules. Don't Forget
(for those of you in town this weekend) MIDTOWN MUSIC FEST!

Progress this week:
Enda:
- Test plan done! Looks good.
Here's the Test Plan.
- Archiving complete-
- best pic windows ready
- started work on design doc
Bob:
- Coding is done.
- Seeding option available-send mail to sumner@cc w/ subject: FRACTAL_SEED #
- preliminary testing on learning algorithm. Seems stable enough
Lynn:
Alp:
- Met w/ customer and adressed product concerns.
- Wined & dined customer, and other PR stuff
- started on CM doc
- added bonus items to schedule
Goals for next week:
|
Enda: |
come up with some redesign options for web page.
disable archiving for now.
back up old generations and purge what's on the server now.
add generation number to voting page
|
|
Bob: |
come up with ways to make 640X480 fractals compute faster
limit equation growth
assist in design doc
|
|
Lynn: |
work on design doc
get through 2390 program
put schedule updates for bonus plan on web page
|
|
Alp: |
work on CM doc
help with testing
finish this status report
keep
Cool GUY gregory on his Toes... Just checking!
|
Problems/Comments:
The 640 X 480 fractal takes some time to compute. Some alternatives are
we could display a slightly smaller resolution, or find a faster fractal
program. In the mean time this seems like a small issue.
We have a few bonus ideas ready, if we have the time we will try to include
those.

Problems/Comments:
Too much crap in other classes. We don't get enough time to enjoy Software
Engineering!
The demo went very well!
Everyone remember to do your reading for this week.
