Winton) Date: Mon Dec 1 17:06:32 2008 Subject: [ece4273-01] [ece4273] Assignments: Directed individual project In-Reply-To: <960acfab0811261104p4b5c46cdr7b494ae311ff4bea@mail.gmail.com> References: <492B474A.6070603@ece.msstate.edu> <960acfab0811261104p4b5c46cdr7b494ae311ff4bea@mail.gmail.com> Message-ID: <49347A3C.4040502@ece.msstate.edu> Will talk about the project tomorrow in (last) class. The project does have some caveats. -RW ------------------------ Palmer Burks wrote: > Dr. Winton, > > I have a couple of questions for the final project.
