CSCE 614 Spring 2020 Schedule

This schedule is a pack of lies. It is supposed to give the dates, topics, readings, and assignments for CSCE 614, however as of now it is almost completely inaccurate beyond the first week. Click on the topics for lecture notes. Note: These dates are tentative and subject to change. Homeworks, projects, exams, and additional readings may be added or modified as the semester progresses. If you click on something from the future and it's not there, it's because I haven't put it there yet. I'll get to it.
