Welcome Message
Dear student,
Welcome to the Compilers (CS451/651) course I will be teaching this semester!
-
Please make sure that you meet the prerequisites for the course: CS310 and CS420 or CS622; or permission of the instructor.
-
Please read through the course website very carefully and acquaint yourself with the course mechanics.
- Please take care of the following action items:
- Sign up for iClicker (active learning platform) using your UMB email address and add the course CS451/651 to your dashboard. You will need to purchase an iClicker Student App Subscription to participate in the in-class quizzes.
- Sign up for Piazza (Q&A platform) and Gradescope (grading platform) using the invitations that will be sent to your UMB email address.
- Setup the programming environment on your computer.
- Complete the mandatory questionnaire (all six questions) available on Gradescope. You will not be allowed to submit your assignments or take the exams until you complete the questionnaire.
- Sign up for a CS account.
-
CS451/651 is a very demanding course, so please be prepared to work really hard from the outset, or else you will quickly fall behind and end up with a poor/failing grade.
- If you are currently waitlisted, you will be enrolled automatically if enough students drop out before the add/drop deadline. The enrollment capacity is set at 50 for CS451 and 26 for CS651. If one course is over-enrolled (ie, there are students on the waitlist) while the other has free seats, I will enroll as many waitlisted students from the former into the latter, in the order of their waitlist number. Please note that I will not go over the total enrollment capacity of 76.
I look forward to having you in my class.
Best,
Swami
