-The exact schedule ​will be communicated once we know the exact number ​of students.+At the time of submission of your project, you will be asked to indicate whether you prefer to have an in depth interrogation on swarm-based optimization or on swarm robotics. ​ Place this information on the front page of your project report, under your name.
  
-/* +Students should also provide, together ​with the delivery ​of their project, a telephone number or Skype address where we could call them in case there is any problem with the TEAMS connection. Please ​place your telephone number ​on the project front pagejust beside your name.

-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. +

-*/+- If you have chosen to have a deep examination on swarm-based optimization,​ you will answer Prof. Dorigo'​s questions on the topic; and will present your project to Prof. Birattari. Prof. Birattari will ask you question on the project and also a few questions on the part of the course that focused on swarm robotics, automatic design, and division of labour.

Prof. Dorigo will ask you question on the project and also a few questions on the part of the course that focused on ant colony optimization and particle swarm optimization.
-===== Project first session =====+
  
-The project is composed of two parts, covering ​the two subjects studied ​in classswarm robotics ​and optimization. In the first partthe students are required to solveby 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 particle swarm optimization algorithm.+The two parts of the exam will not necessarily happen ​in the order defined aboveyou might first be asked in-depth questions on the selected topic and then present ​the projector vice versa. Also, the two parts of the exam will not necessarily happen one immediately after the other either: ​ even though we will try to limit the time interval between the two examinations to few hours at most.
  
 +As a reminder, your final mark will be the average between the two partial marks received for the project and for the answers you will give to the theoretical questions on the course. Also, in order to pass the exam you need to pass both the presentation of the project and the theoretical questions.
  
-<note important>​ +Please do not forget that the deadline for the delivering the project ​and the accompanying report ​is August 9, 2020, at midnight. ​ Note that delayed delivery will be subject to the following: ​1 point lost for each interval of 12 hours delayMax delay 3 calendar days (that is, no exam for projects delivered after August 11 at midnight).

-/*** Project rules ** +
- +
-The project counts for 50% of the final grade. The two parts of the project (swarm robotics and optimization) are equally important and comprise one single project. Therefore, in order to deliver a complete project, the students have to tackle both parts. +
- +
-The project submission deadline is June 6 at 23:59. Delay on the submission will entail a penalty of 1 point every 12 hours of delay on the final evaluation of the project. Maximum delays is June 9 at 23:59. After this deadline, the exam is failed. +
- +
-The students have to submit, ​via the Assignments of TEAMS, the following elements: +
- +
-- Their code in digital format together with information on how to test it; +
- +
-- A short report of maximum 7 pages written in English that describes their work. +

-**Project registration - Second session** +
-</​note>​ +
-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+
-<note important> +
-**The deadline for the delivery of the second session project is Friday, August 9, 2019, at 23:59** +
-</​note>​ +
-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. +
