Please stay safe and attend the lecture remotely.

Important Notice Regarding Assignment 1 Submission

Posted by Xubo Wang Monday 30 June 2025, 12:32:18 PM.

Please be reminded that Assignment 1 is due this Friday 5pm .

Attention PLEASE !!!!

It has come to our attention that some students have mistakenly accessed and attempted last year's assignment under the General Course Resources Hub section. This was caused by a system issue, and that content has now been hidden.

Please ensure that you complete and submit COMP6714 A1 under the Assessment section, as instructed.

A 7-day extension will be granted only to students who attempted the incorrect version (we have a record of affected students). The revised deadline for those students is 5pm, Friday July 11th .

Thank you for your understanding!

The teaching team of COMP6714
