The Homeworks will NOT always be obvious answers from either the
lecture or the readings. The idea is to get you to go beyond
what was covered and think about things yourself.
The threads project is consciously NOT covered in class.
You (should) have learned enough about operating systems
and processes to read and understand a new, but related
concept such as threads.
I assume that you are doing the readings. Thus quizzes may
cover material from the readings that is NOT presented
in class.
Abstracts take time, but I think you should be reading the technical
literature. Therefore I consider abstracts to be general CS activity.
I am just asking you to document something that you are already
doing.
I view Web page errors or ambiguity as YOUR problem.
You need to tell me about such issues immediately,
rather than wait until the end of the semester.
