Simulation Exercises (not for submission):
Simulator Exercises - To get some practice with the simulatorAssignment Submission
- Submit all solutions by email as a SINGLE pdf file only to ee5390(dot)2013(at)gmail(dot)com. Name your file exactly as per the instructions below.
- Name your file with your id eexxxxx and assignment number yy as eexxxxxx_yy.pdf
- Joint work masquerading as individual submissions(a.k.a. copying) will result in severe penalties: e.g. zero on all assignments.
- Regardless of the order in which you do the problems, rearrange the solutions in the right order in the submission.
- Choose appropriate axes limits while plotting your results. The area of interest should be clearly visible in the plot.
- You can use a wordprocessor of your choice and convert the result to a pdf file.
- If you have multiple files, you can use pdftk to combine them. This is installed under /usr/local in VLSI and TI labs. Documentation can be found at /usr/local/doc/pdftk/pdftk.1.html
Another way to generate a pdf is to concatenate ps(postscript) files containing all figures and text(use enscript to convert text to ps) to a single ps file. Run ps2pdf on this file to get a pdf file.
enscript -p p1.txt.ps p1.txt
enscript -p p2.txt.ps p2.txt
cat p1.txt.ps fig1.ps p2.txt.ps fig2.ps > out.ps
ps2pdf out.ps eexxxxxx_01.pdf - Put your name and roll number on the first page. For joint submissions, put all the names on the first page and submit a single email.
- N people submitting jointly will all receive 2^[-(N-1)/2] times the graded credit for the assignment.
