Automated Reasoning

The assessment will be done by the lecturer and will consist of three parts:

  1. The write-up of the literature survey (term paper) will account for 25% of the final mark.
  2. The student's presentation of the review (an in-depth analysis) of an existing automated reasoning system together with a short assigned filled review form for the research paper (course work) will account for 10% of the final mark.
  3. A written test at the end of the course will account for 65% of the mark. The final grade for the course will be provided as a percentage.
