Assignment 4: Survey


Survey 4

Instructions

Every student should submit an individual survey. In order to speed processing of the surveys, please submit your response according to the following guidelines. 

The response should be a plain text email (no HTML, no attached files). It should be addressed to cs501-l@lists.cs.cornell.edu with the subject "Survey 4", followed by your NetID and the name of the project in the subject.

Remember that to send messages to cs501-l@lists.cs.cornell.edu you must use an email address from the cornell.edu domain. Messages sent from other domains will be rejected.

Question 1

The aim of this question is to identify students who make extra special contributions to the project and to ensure that everybody plays a significant part.  

Since the completion of Assignment 3 your team should have been working towards completing the project. The work will have included team coordination, meetings with the client, implementation, testing, installation, preparing the presentation, and packaging the work for delivery to the client. List the members of your team. Against each person's name, estimate what percentage of the total effort that person (including yourself) contributed. If, for example, you estimate that one member of your team did a quarter of the work, then write 25% against that person's name for Question 1. The total percentages should add up to 100%.

Here is a sample message:
