COS 333 Projects (Spring 2012)

As always, this is an interesting and eclectic bunch of projects; it's going to be fun to see them come together.

These are the projects, in random order. If there's a catchy name I've used that, and otherwise summarized the content. Member names in each group are in alphabetical order, and the project manager is marked with an asterisk. If I got anything wrong, please let me know.

I have included a very brief summary for each project, basically no more than a sentence, so that everyone can see what everyone else is doing. This has been mostly lifted from your design document, since I think it will be helpful if people can share whatever they learn. Feel free to discuss all aspects of projects with anyone, and to help each other out, especially if you discover something useful or figure out how to do something -- everyone benefits. I'll upgrade this list as we go along, especially if people give me more info, like url's. In particular, if the link on this page to your project page doesn't work, please make sure that www.cs.princeton.edu/~managernetid/333.html is readable.

You should contact your assigned TA to work out a schedule for weekly meetings, which begin the week after break. More information on how to get the most out of these meetings can be found here, which you should read now.

The TAs are Stephen Beard (sbeard), Chris Monsanto (cmmonsan), Srinivas Narayana (narayana), Taewook Oh (twoh), Gordon Stewart (jsseven) and Yida Wang (yidawang).
