                IMPORTANT PROJECT INFORMATION

1. WHAT TO HAND IN.

Hand in a FOLDER--the kind with a pocket, you can buy them in the bookstore -- 
with YOUR NAME on it, containing in the pocket (1) block diagrams of your 
simulations, (2) answers to the questions asked in the problems in the text, (3)
printed copies of the text of your source code (.GPS files) and your output 
files (.lis files), and (4) a 3.5"HD floppy disk with your source code (.GPS 
files).  Be sure your floppy disk also has YOUR NAME on it.

Be sure your block diagrams are neatly drawn using a template or drawing 
software.  Be sure your answers to questions in the text are neatly typed or 
word processed.  Include with each answer (1) a statement of the question being 
answered, (2) a brief indication of the calulation or method you used to find 
your answer, and (3) the numerical value of the answer.  You may use any method 
(hand, calculator, spreadsheet, program, etc.) to find the actual numerical 
value.

2. NAMING AND FORMATTING

(1) To efficiently grade your projects, I need for you to follow a CONSISTENT 
NAMING CONVENTION for files.  Suppose you are handing in problem 3.3
from the text.  You MUST name your source code file (.GPS file) PROB3-3.GPS.  
The GPSS/H simulator will then take care of naming your output file (.lis file) 
PROB3-3.LIS.

(2)   Each of your programs must begin with a remark box containing the 
following information, formatted as indicated:

   PROGRAMMER:  Your name.
   DATE:        Current date.
   COURSE: 	Course number and semester (CS 473, Fall 2000).
   PROJECT: 	Project number (eg. Project 1).
   PROBLEM	Problem number (eg. 3.4)
   PROGRAM: 	Program name (use a descriptive name like SHOP SIMULATION).
   DESCRIPTION:	A brief description of what the GPSS/H program simulates.
   FILES:       The files and streams your program uses for input and output 
                (NONE until we get to Chapter 9.).
   LANGUAGE:    GPSS/H version you used

(3)  EACH project IS due AT THE BEGINNING OF CLASS on the assigned day.  Don't
skip the class to finish your work and then come dragging in just as class ends,
because you will either miss a test or important information.
