ASSIGNMENT

There will be two assignments. The first one will have some problems to solve and some theory questions to answer and is due on the 18th of July.

The second assignment is slightly different involving review of a journal paper (provided by the instructor). Review should be critical, detailed, and thorough. The review report presented should be in the form of extended abstract of strictly less than 500 words – or about 1 page. If it goes more than this, the information on the second page will be discarded while grading. The report (neatly typed in Times New Roman font, size 12) is due on 6th of August. In order to provide enough details in your review, it may be necessary to review papers listed under the “References” Section of the selected paper. List of references should be added at end of the abstract (can be on the second page). Proper Concordia guidelines of referencing should be followed. Plagiarism and copying other persons work is strictly prohibited. This will be penalized with 0 marks.
