Late homeworks go to the <EM>grader's</EM> mailbox or mailfolder in the CS Dept. main office (MCS 138). <P><DT><EM>Lateness</EM> <P><DD>Homeworks are penalized 5% of the maximum grade per day of delay.Deadline extensions will be granted in cases of personal emergency, and if the needed amount of time is significantly underestimated.If you must, please request an extension as soon as you realize you need it. <P><DT><EM>Honor</EM> <P><DD>We trust that you honor the notion of giving credit where credit is due: so, please acknowledge any sources you use in your course work.This requires proper citation of the source, and clear delineation of the material (<EM>e.g.</EM>, code, algorithm, design idea, paraphrase, quotation, etc.) obtained from it. <P><DT><EM>Collaboration</EM> <P><DD>I <EM>encourage</EM> you to collaborate in studying and on homeworks.To avoid gaining an unfair advantage (<EM>i.e.</EM>, cheating or plagiarism) the rule is simple: <STRONG>produce the actual solution in isolation</STRONG> from others' work.That is, what you submit should be entirely your original expression, except for what you specifically credit to other sources.For example, copying without attribution any part, however small, of someone else's program constitutes plagiarism---even if you modify it, and even if the source is a textbook.<P>Standards of academic conduct treat cheating and plagiarism very seriously, because they impede the drive for originality and invention that have been the hallmark of human progress. </DL> </DL><!---------------------------------------------------------------------------> <HR>[ Created1994.04 .
