Project 2 - Due Wednesday October 5th at the beginning of your class section.



The actual description for this project is available on the GRACE cluster of UNIX machines (these are a subset of the campus GLUE cluster). To see the description you will need to:

  • Make a secure shell (ssh) connection to one of the GRACE machines (you can connect via either the linux.grace.umd.edu or solaris.grace.umd.edu alias for this initial stage - in some of the parts you may be told to connect to a specific host).

  • Once logged into your account (use your GLUE account that you set up in project 1 to log into the GRACE machine) you need to go into the public posting directory for this course. You can go there by typing the following command at the prompt after logging in:

                cd   /afs/glue/class/fall2005/cmsc/102/0301/public

  • While in that directory, you can use the more command to view the description. It is in a file named project2.description in that directory. The actual project description and all of the things that you need to do for the project are in that text file.


    The project description will refer to a "handout" sheet available on the project 2 webpage called Funfile Text. You can Click Here to see that file.
