Independent Projects

Fall 2005



An ftp directory has been created with subdirectories for each of you, named by your userid.
The online registration process from previous years has been replaced by uploading files
to your ftp subdirectory.

Your files should be uploaded by doing one of the following:
  • On the command line::
    ftp ftp.cs.princeton.edu
    (login as anonymous, and use your email address as the password)
    cd incoming/iw/fall05/
    cd <username>  
    put <filename>

  • Using a browser:
    ftp://ftp.cs.princeton.edu/incoming/iw/fall05
    select the directory with your username
    upload files to the directory
Please make sure that you upload files to your own subdirectory only !
You should upload the following files to your directory:

  • Initially, upload the following files:
    title.txt             (your project title)
    keywords.txt   (a short list of keywords relevant to your project)
    abstract.txt      (a brief description of your project)
    advisor.txt       (your advisor's name)

  • For your project proposal, upload your slides and name the file proposal.* (e.g. proposal.ppt).
    If you upload revisions later, number them e.g. proposal2.ppt  etc.

  • For your checkpoint,  upload your slides and name the file checkpoint.*
    (e.g. checkpoint.ppt).
    If you upload revisions later, number them e.g. checkpoint2.ppt  etc.


  • For your final presentation,  upload your slides and name the file final.*
    (e.g. final.ppt).
    If you upload revisions later, number them e.g. final2.ppt  etc.

  • For your final/progress report,  upload your report and name the file report.*
    (e.g. report.pdf).
    If you upload revisions later, number them e.g. report2.pdf  etc.



Note: you will not be able to download files from the ftp directory, but they will be accessible for the proposal talks.
