Milestone

Deliverables

• Presentation

Details

The purpose of milestones a milestone is to keep you and your team on track for a timely project completion (without pulling any all-nighters the week prior to the final deadline).

The first milestone should demonstrate progress by all team members. At this point, all research related to understanding the scope of the project should be done, and the project should be in a state where there are no knowledge gaps in the progression from the current state to the final completed solution. A specific list and timeline of completed and uncompleted tasks is expected, along with any preliminary results. You should also include a detailed discussion of the present architecture and how it aligns to what you originally proposed – were there any changes that had to be made? If so, why? What's the plan going forward? The presentation should be 8 minutes.

Final Presentation and Demonstration

...

A live demonstration of the project is expected during the presentation, which combined should be 15 minutes.

The written report and presentation should expand upon the initial proposal by including the following additional information:

• actual implementation details
• designed experiments/demonstration description
• outcomes with accompanying explanation
• conclusion

Expectations

All team members should contribute equally towards each component and the final goal. For each presentation, all team member are expected to participate and lead a portion of the discussion. Be prepared to answer any questions from the class or instructors on your project.
