Syllabus

All readings are from Scientific Computing: An Introductory Survey, Michael T. Heath, (2nd edition), McGraw Hill, 2002.

We will cover Chapters 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 12. Not all material in each chapter will be covered. We will be using Matlab extensively throughout the semester. Matlab is available on most CISE machines.

Homeworks, Project and Exams

There will be approximately 10-12 homeworks, a project and two midterms. The second midterm will only cover the material after the first mid term. The grading percentages are homeworks (30%), project (20%), midterm 1 (35%) and midterm 2 (15%). The first midterm will most likely be held on Thursday, March 28th and the second midterm on Tuesday, April 23rd.
Homeworks will be assigned and due on Thursdays in class unless otherwise noted. If you are unable to turn in the homework by the end of class Thursday, you can turn in the homework late with a 30% penalty before 5pm, Friday. (Please indicate this by writing "LATE" at the top of your homework.) We will award no credit for homeworks received after 5pm Friday.

Students with Disabilities

Students requesting classroom accommodation must first register with the Dean of Students Office. The Dean of Students Office will provide documentation to the student who must then provide this documentation to the Instructor when requesting accommodation.
