 +===== Project first session =====
 +
 +The project is composed of two parts, covering the two subjects studied in class: swarm robotics and optimization. In the first part, the students are required to solve, by hand, a collective decision problem in which a swarm must select the best option among set of possible alternatives. In the second part, the students must identify parameters of their solution to the collective decision problem, and fine-tune these parameters using a particle swarm optimization algorithm.

 </​note>​*/​ </​note>​*/​
  
-At the exam you will present the results of your project using a powerpoint-like presentation of exactly 7 minutes. Please bring your own portable computer. The rest of the exam will consist of a question answering session on all the subjects covered by the course.

 +To take part in the project, which is mandatory for the exam, you have to register by sending an email by July 7, 2019, to: 
 +- Christian Camacho Villalón and Federico Pagnozzi if you choose the project in optimization (ccamacho@ulb.ac.be;​ federico.pagnozzi@ulb.ac.be
 +Antoine Ligot and David Garzon Ramos if you choose the project in robotics (aligot@ulb.ac.be; dgarzonr@ulb.ac.be)

 +Projects submitted after this deadline will incur a penalty of 1 point for each 12 hours delay, with a max accepted delay of 2 calendar days.  Projects delivered after the midnight of Sunday, August 11, 2019, will not be considered and the student will therefore not be admitted to the exam.

 + 
 +**The first session exams will take place on June 22nd/​23rd/​24th,​ 2020** 
 + 
 +However, to increase flexibility,​ it will also be possible for  
 +the students to choose to have their exam on the 16th or the 18th. 
 +In this case they should let us know, at the time they deliver their  
 +project (June 6, 2020), whether they wish to have their examination  
 +on the 16th, the 18th or the 22nd/​23rd/​24th.  
 +We will try as much as possible to meet the students requests. 
 +If no indication is provided, it will be assumed that the student wishes to take his/her exam on the 22nd/​23rd/​24th.

 + 
 +/*<note important>​

 +A list with approximated presentation times for the day of exam will be available when the date of the exam is approaching. Please let us know if you have time constraints that day so we can schedule your exam at a convenient time. 
 +At the exam you will present the results of your project ​using a powerpoint-like presentation of exactly 5 minutes. Please bring your own portable computer and make sure it is already switched on and ready when you are called in for your oral exam. The rest of the exam will consist of a question answering session on all the subjects covered by the course.

 +===== Second session ===== 
 + 
 +There will be a second session. The exam modalities will be the same as in the first session. The description of a new project will be made available in early July.
  
  
-The deadline to deliver the project is **June 3**, please follow the instructions provided. ​ Please remind that there are 2 points of penalty for each day of delay in the submission of the project (this means, 2 points lost if you deliver after the deadline and until 24h delay, and so on). No exceptions.
