| Assessment |
|
The didactic activity ends with a written exam (the W grade). During the semester, students will have to develop several projects and reports on mobile calculus, wireless and real-time systems related topics (the L grade).
Final grade = 50%W + 50%L. All the requests related to the criteria which must be met by students in order to pass the exam (laboratory presence, minimal requests regarding the quality of reports/projects developed etc.) are at: http://cs.ubbcluj.ro/~forest/rdsos. |
