CS 1651: Slides and Readings

This page will include notes and slides used in the lectures. This is for your convenience, but the slides and notes will not be a substitute for attending the lectures or reading the required readings. Exams will cover topics discussed in class and in the required readings, and are therefore not restricted to just the slides.
