EE 4770, Real Time Systems- Frequently Asked Questions


Course Materials On Web Server

How do I get copies of the slides presented in class?
Copies of the slides are available in my office, and via the Internet (see http://www.ee.lsu.edu/ee4770/ln.html). The Internet copies are in three forms, HTML, which can be displayed by any web browser; Portable Document Format version 3.0, which can be displayed using the Adobe Acrobat Reader helper application or plug-in; and gzipped PostScript, which can be displayed or printed from any web browser on a properly configured system. Most Unix systems are properly configured. PDF stand-alone and browser plug-in viewers and can be downloaded from the Adobe site. The HTML-formated slides are a rough translation (of the TEX dvi format) and so mathematics will not come out properly (some symbols might be missing) and illustrations will not show at all.

Grading and Exams

How are the cutoffs used to convert the final average to a letter grade determined?
The cutoffs are based on the quality of work. There is no quota, and so as many or as few A's as earned will be given.

I am thinking about dropping the course. What grade would I receive if I stay in?
My deal with the fortune tellers: I don't predict the future, they don't teach EE.

I received the highest B in the class. Can you change my grade to an A?
I would, but you're the second person to ask. :-)
