Assignments are due every three weeks. The assignments are combinations of essay type questions and programming exercises. Each programming project is built on the previous one. By the end of the semester, you will have a complete, working AI planning system.
| Assignment | Topic | Weight | Tentative Due Date |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Basic LISP programming | 6% | Jan 26 (Fri) 12:15 PM |
| 2 | State Space Search | 13% | Feb 16 (Fri) 12:15 PM |
| 3 | Automated Theorem Proving | 13% | Mar 9 (Fri) 12:15 PM |
| 4 | Planning | 13% | Mar 30 (Fri) 12:15 PM |
The assignments, their related source code, and partial assignment solutions will be posted regularly at the CMPT 310 Assignments page (http://www.cs.sfu.ca/CC/310/pwfong/Assignments). There you can also find information about the suggested development platform.
You will be programming in the Common LISP programming language. Since you are already a third-year computing science student, you should be intellectually mature enough to learn a new language on your own. No lecture will be scheduled for teaching LISP. Please refer to the Learning LISP for CMPT 310 page (http://www.cs.sfu.ca/CC/310/pwfong/Lisp) for information on mastering LISP programming.

3 hours of instructor office hours and 4 hours of TA office hours are allocated weekly. In order to maintain a one-week turnaround time for assignment marking, the TA's will NOT host any office hour for the weeks immediately following an assignment due date.
| Philip Fong | TWF | 2:30-3:30 PM | ASB 10878 |
| Janet Hsiao | R | 2:30-4:30 PM | CSIL |
| Anthony Tang | MW | 10:30-11:30 PM | CSIL |
Due to the closing of CSIL until Jan 15, the place where office hours are hosted during this period will be announced later in our mailing list.
The class mailing list is for making announcements about the course. Do NOT direct questions to the instructor and TA's using this mailing list.
If you have administrative concerns (e.g. trying to arrange an appointment with a TA, complaining about marking, etc), please email either the instructor or the TA's. Please include the magic phrase "CMPT 310" in the subject field if you want the email to be replied promptly. Since sufficient office hours have been allocated, we will NOT answer questions about course materials and assignments through email.
Late assignments will not be graded.
Intellectual dishonesty will not be tolerated. Consult http://www.cs.sfu.ca/undergrad/Policies/honesty.html for details.
