Random assignment I've received no preference from them

  *Presentation No. 4 by Bahaeddin Eravcı, Emre Yılmaz has received the best presentation recognition by peer voting.

Please remember the following presentation and pointers:

1)       Remember my note in the assignment "Please do not pick no. 4, 24, 33, 46 since we may cover them in our course." Accordingly these papers are not assigned to anybody.

2)       You cannot miss your presentation or other groups' presentation: make sure that you are in class on time.

3)       Prepare a 5-minute in class presentation using power point.  This is a new presentation style used in some CS conferences.

4)       Make it available on the Web also bring it to the class in a memory stick. 

5)       You must prepare handout (e.g., a poster on A4 paper) and give it to your classmates at the beginning of your presentation. 

6)       Only provide the most essential parts of the paper (you have no other choice). In case of survey articles just present a part of it, but please make sure that it is a complete story.

7)       Most importantly make us understand the intuition behind it, and its significance. 

8)       I will bring a chronometer and stop each presentation when the allocated time expires. 

9)       Presentation number indicates the order of presentation.  After each presentation we will have time for questions and answers for about 2 minutes.

10)    With your votes we will pick the best presentation.  You can only vote for one group.
