COMP4320/COMP6468: Network Security

About the assignments

Assignments form part of your assessment. You should do your assignments independently. If by any chance any kind of plagiarism is caught, heavy penalty will apply. Suspected plagiarism will be judged as plagiarism if no acceptable defending evidence of being innocent can be provided.

You are encouraged to use a cover sheet for your assignments.

Notes about your assignments submission

No assignment box is set for comp4320. Assignments are usually to be handed in after a lecture or drop to my office (CSIT building, room N314). If the office door is locked, just put your assignments through the slot under the door. If you cannot hand in your hard copy of assignments in time, emails may also be acceptable if there is a good excuse. In case of submission via emails, only pdf and ps formats are acceptable, and email submissions may not get written comments back.
You are strongly recommended to submit your assignments well before the deadline in case of unexpected problems, for example network problems actually occur quite often.
This is general guideline only. Please refer to individual assignment instructions.

Marked assignments

Marked assignments should be collected as early as possible, and have them checked. If you have any questions regarding the marks or any confusion, please check with the lecturer. Assignment marks are not changed after the final exam, except for some obvious mistakes (e.g. miss counted marks). Please keep your marked assignments until the course is completely finished.
