I will be emailing you a short report with tells you:

• Your mark before late penalty, i.e., how much your submitted work was worth
• Your mark after late penalty if it applies. If you submitted on time, this field and last one should show the same number.
• Any comments on the mistakes that you have made.

In order for you to better understand those comments, I will create a thread on the course forum which explains the common problems that are found in the Assignment. I aim to get the emails and forum thread out by Wednesday. I would appreciate if you read the forum thread before making any query.

The project is now available. To view it, go to the course website and look for the Project link on the menu.

The project is on discrete event simulation (DES) which covers writing DES code and using DES data for design.

We will completed our lectures on discrete event simulation on Friday of Week 5 so you are ready to work on the project after that.
