Homework 11, ECE301, Spring 2011, Prof. Boutin

Due by 11pm Wednesday March 23, 2011

This homework consists of a double-blind peer-review of homework 10. In other words, you will be grading each other's homework! Of course, we are giving you the solution.

Every student who handed in a scan of their homework in the appropriate homework section of the instructor's Assignment Box before the deadline can participate in this review.


To begin the review, go to your own dropbox and click on your "Assignment" tab. There, you should see a file (anonymous) waiting to be reviewed, along with a space to write/upload your review. Open the file and grade each question according to the instructions described below. It is recommended that you print out the file and mark out all mistakes using a red pen; you can then scan and upload the graded homework (in pdf format). When you are done grading, add up all the points and write the total on the front page of the assignment.

Note 1: if you are having problems with the system or the file, please let us know by writing a comment on the hw11 discussion page or by emailing your instructor as soon as possible

Note 2: If the answer to a problem is pretty much unreadable, feel free to give zero points for that problem.

Total Points: 185 points

Overall Presentation: 10 points

All problems solutions should be clearly written, in the correct order. The paper should be free of stains and tears (e.g., not torn out of a spiral book). The scan should be of good enough quality to be easy to read. The file should be in in a single file, in pdf format.
