Examination

Two voluntary home assignments will be given, they give bonus points to the written examination (2+4 bonus points). For full credits, both a written report and possibly an oral presentation have to be performed, and therefore attendance to the exercise sessions on the 8/11 and 3/12 are necessary. For full details, see the descriptions for the assignments that will be available on the homepage.
The first written exam is given on December 18, 2010, 09.00-14.00. Please remember to sign up for the exam on "My Pages" on the internet.
