Project Defense – second (and last) Chance

A second-chance defense session will take place on Tuesday 26-July-2005 9:00-11:00 at IBM Research Lab. You will have to register (call Keren / Liron). The following teams are expected to arrive for this session: 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 16, 19.

There is a single requirement to accept a project for this session:
Being able to compile and run an application (e.g. the sample main program) using your
memmgr.dll and configuration file (for execution)  and memmgr.lib for compilation)

To create an application, create a windows console project .You are allowed to use ONLY the following files:

1.      Any main.cpp (e.g. main.cpp from the website)

2.      memmgr.lib (created by you )

3.      memmgr.h (from website)

4.      memobject.h (from website)

You have to submit by Thursday 21-July-2005 the following files:

1.      memmgr.lib (for compilation purposes only)

2.      memmgr.dll (for execution purposes)

3.      A configuration file

4.      Any additional changes you want subject to the following rules:

a.       Submitting a new DLL (i.e., different from the one you already sent) will result in a penalty of 20%

b.      Creating the project with header files not from the website and / or with additional header files will result in a penalty of 10%.

c.       Still not able to run the project, compile the project or use it in the required way (i.e. with a DLL) will result in a project failure (ZERO)
