+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.

 ===== Exam modalities =====
-Will be added later
+**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.
