PROF. HO – FALL 2015 – ASA 1 — SECOND PAPER TOPICS AND INSTRUCTIONS
PAPER DEADLINE: THURSDAY DEC. 3, 2015 Last Day of Class to your TA after Class Lecture.
PLEASE KEEP TO THIS DEADLINE.
GENERAL INFORMATION ON PAPER
GOAL(S): We want to be sure that you can organize and sustain a reasonable, consistent and original
argument around a central angle or point (thesis). The thesis or central idea should be defended or
supported with your well-argued assertions or claims consistently throughout the paper. (If you have no
thesis or central idea, your paper will be headless and this is not a good way to start a paper.) The
supporting assertions, in turn, must be persuasively supported by evidence/examples that are fully
discussed to show the clear relation to your assertions and to the thesis/central point or angle. The
conclusion should indicate the implications of the case argued in your paper. The prose should be clear
and consistently grammatical. You should be able to manage the topic/thesis within the proportions of the
page length. (You definitely do not want to talk in generalities and clichés throughout paper.) Please take
the time to define, explain, and provide a clear and original angle and evidence for the central assertions.
The point of your paper is to make persuasive and consistent case for your particular idea (point or thesis)
throughout your paper. Be sure to review carefully the “General Guidelines to Written Work in ASA 1” in
your ASA 1 READER Folder (First Day documents) on SmartSite. Please talk to your TA about serious
late paper penalties in this class. The paper should show you critically thinking through ideas, engaging
with them in ways that show you are really trying to process and understand the ideas in your own
original voice and writing.
Again, the “DO-NOTS” for this paper:
● Do not simply state important opinions or conclusions without providing the necessary argument
that will demonstrate–clearly and convincingly–how YOU arrived at your conclusion or line of
reasoning throughout paper.
● Do not simply describe, summarize, comment or paraphrase an essay/reading as a central
organizing method for your essay. This doesn’t tell us how YOUR understanding of an idea or
how YOU plan to use it in YOUR essay. It eats up valuable space for your own voice and critical
analysis.
● Do not use clichés (ideas and language) and fuzzy or meaningless generalities or PC language.
● Do not use up paper space with lots of quotes or worse yet, big block quotes; be selective. If you
use a lot of quotes to fill up space, this will be a clear indication that you are not doing the
necessary analysis of putting your ideas together. Use evidence to enhance your specific
assertions–not as a substitute for your ideas.
● DO NOT PLAGIARIZE as your academic ethics and integrity are on the line. If you do not
understand the syllabus definition of plagiarism, please talk to your TAs. Do not plagiarize ideas
from website papers or notes, an old student paper, etc. Do not plagiarize ideas from books,
articles, media, people, friends, or students in your class directly or indirectly.
● Do not buy papers online as that is cheating and TAs check these sites. See MLA Handbook
(book or online citation information) for correct ways to cite directly and/or indirectly.
____________________________________________________________________
STANDARD TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS
The paper must:
1. Be at least 6-7 pages long (exclusive of bibliography). The paper should reach the bottom of the
page 6 at a minimum, exclusive of bibliography page.
2. Be on ONE topic only (see below for topics). Be sure to cite the topic option and reading in your
thesis paragraph as it makes it easier to know what option you selected.
3. Be formatted properly:
a. Document requirements:
i. 12-point font
ii. 1-inch margins
iii. Double-spaced
iv. Stapled
v. On white paper
b. Title requirements:
i. On the first page (single-spaced and aligned to the top left):
1. Course title
2. Your name
3. TA name/section number
4. The date.
5. A catchy paper title (aligned to the top middle of first page).
ii. On every page:
1. Page numbers (aligned to the top right)
4. Be spell-checked and proofed by you or someone who can check your prose/grammar.
5. Use transitions. The prompts to each of the topic options are meant to guide you through
brainstorming about the thesis/the central point that you are going to make in your paper before
you start writing. So think about how to weave or relate the questions in the prompt to the central
point/thesis you are going to state/construct for building your first paper. Do not just answer one
question after another like a robot.
6. IMPORTANT: Include a MINIMUM OF TWO EXTERNAL ARTICLES, BOOK
CHAPTERS that you researched in SHIELDS library shelves and/or library computer
research databases for journals/media/documents. The research materials you select should
be significant journal articles, documents, book chapter(s) or media/film that suggest you
know how to do some basic research for high quality, well-researched materials to use in
support of your own analysis and bibliography. If you are unsure about what to use, ask
your TA and they will be able to tell you if it counts as a serious or significant article,
chapter, reading, film, etc.
7. Cite all sources. This includes any that you reference as a quote or as an idea (directly or
indirectly) in your paper. If citing from pdf readings in the ASA 1 Reader, please cite the specific
article/reading. Do NOT cite the ASA 1 Reader as the source for any individual reading/article,
but use the individual citations provided. If the specific citation for a pdf reading on
SmartSite is unclear, please ask your TA for assistance.
8. Supply a bibliography for all works used in your paper, preferably in MLA style. If you don’t
know how to cite, you may pick-up free information on citation styles from the library or online,
or purchase a student handbook on MLA/APA style. Be consistent with each entry.
9. Ask for extra help (if you need it). The following resources are available:
a. Student Academic Success Center (SASC). Basic writing assistance is offered through
Writing and ESL Support workshops at SASC located in Dutton Hall. Students may also
sign up for drop-in tutoring, which are one-on-one appointments with a writing specialist.
For further information, visit https://success.ucdavis.edu/academic/writing.html. NOTE:
You must sign-up in-person; do not wait until last minute to schedule an appointment.
b. Visit Shield Library reference librarians. Talk to your TA if you need assistance on your
paper ideas.
IMPORTANT: You are responsible for keeping a back-up copy of your paper in case it gets lost.

Option 1: Mary Paik Lee’s Quiet Odyssey
In ‘Doing Gender with a Feminist Gaze: A Historical Reconstruction of Asian America’, Shirley Hune
states that “viewing Asian American women’s lives as gendered reveals how they have actively
negotiated and contested traditional hierarchical gender relations and flexed their gender roles to fulfill
personal goals and to pursue household and community interests” (427). Explain and define in your own
words what Hune’s quote specifically means as part of your thesis paragraph and thesis angle for this
paper.
Using and discussing specific examples from Mary Paik Lee’s Quiet Odyssey, “Chapter 6” of Sucheng
Chan’s Asian Americans: An Interpretive History, Hune pdf reading and a minimum of two external
sources, discuss one of the following topics:
• the issues and challenges that Korean American women faced as they fulfilled various roles in
their household and in their communities.
• the roles and activities of Korean American women in the transnational movement for Korean
independence.
Remember, you are writing a paper in an Asian American history course and you should be thinking
about how the above options are embedded/situated/contextualized in particular historical times and
spaces. In your opening thesis paragraph, the reader should know clearly and precisely which one of the
above options you picked.

This is my initial theme for my final and research essay. I was to examine Female Rights in the Middle East, Saudi Arabia specifically. I would also want to centre my research over their Freedom of Expression. Can the women of the Middle East really speak their mind?
There was an art piece exhibited in the Mathaf, an art museum in Doha, Qatar, last year by Aisha Al Misnad that really inspired me. She is a Saudi woman and wanted to express the struggle women have in Saudi Arabia through art. She printed out letters of permission women needed to get in order to leave the country, printed them on doves that were suspended from the ceiling. That was supposed to represent both the struggle in which a women had to endure in order to only leave the country, also it represents the freedom they felt after leaving their home.
Nonetheless, I argue that it’s still cultural. Saudi Arabians are too narrow minded to just hand women their rights. And even if they had them, they live in a highly male dominated society that it would not make any difference.

The following are the potential resources that I will use for my final essay:

Stephan, Rita. “Modernizing Women: Gender and Social Change in the Middle East.” (2004): n. pag. University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Web.
Women’s Rights in Saudi Arabia: Wahhabism vs. Islam Morocco World News, 2013
Women of the Middle East: The Jihad Within, Basch-Harod, Heidi (2011)
Women’s careers in the Arab Middle East. Afiouni, Fida (2014)

These are not final resources since I yet need to narrow my argument down. Basically I am aiming to investigate the power the Taliban has over the laws in Saudi Arabia and how that is affecting the role of women within. The Talibans’ interpretation of Islam is very extreme and is unfair to women whereas the Quran and the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) speak highly of the role of women in society. Thus, their misinterpretation of Islam is segregating the women in their community. That goes against equality and basic human rights. However, the culture in Saudi Arabia is one of the reasons as to why women are restrained from certain opportunities. Such as, education and getting jobs. This could also be narrowed down to their inability to walk on their streets in some areas of Saudi Arabia since it is considered shameful and blameworthy.

Plagiarism Quiz
You should complete the quiz and also visit the Skills@Library website for more information on academic integrity.

Your work will be uploaded to Turnitin. If you plagiarise, you will be caught. Several students have been excluded from the University over the last couple of years for plagiarism. Don’t let it be you!

Your report will also contain your code. This mini-project is an individual piece of work. Do not let your friends and classmates copy your code. This is collusion.

Report Outline
Create your report in Word or similar software. Use the following structure:

Title Page (include your name and SID)
Contents Page
Introduction
Hardware Description
Software Description
Results and Testing
Conclusion
References
Appendix
Use relevant subsections as you see fit i.e. 4.1 LCD Display

The suggested length is 10 to 14 pages. The appendix does not count towards the page length.

Introduction
This is your opportunity to set your report in context.
What is an embedded system?
What is a microcontroller?
What are the possible applications of your project?
List a set of clear aims and objectives for your project.
To get the best marks, you are expected to do further reading and not just rely on the lab notes.

Hardware Description
Present an overall system block diagram.
Discuss each block in depth (use sub-sections).
Include images of each block.
Link the operation of each block to the underlying theory.
To get the best marks, you are expected to do further reading and not just rely on the lab notes (e.g. how does the LCD interface work?).

Software Description
If you followed good software engineering practice, your code should be split into different functions.
Present flowchart of the overall software flow.
You should not create a flowchart that mirrors the code line-by-line, it is more of a general overview.
If the flowchart is too simple, the reader would not be able implement the algorithm.
If the flowchart is too complex, it can be difficult for the reader to follow. Find the right balance.
Present flowcharts of each function.

Results and Testing
This corresponds to the technical merit of the project in the report rubric.

Present the testing of the temperature logger.
You can take images of the LCD screen using a camera demonstrating the functionality.
To achieve the highest marks, you are required to implement original features – ensure these are discussed here to obtain credit for them.

Conclusion
Discuss each of the aims and objectives presented in the introduction.
If you did not meet them, explain why.
Discuss how you could expand the project in fututre.

References
Reference any resources you have used.
Avoid the use of Wikipedia.
Use IEEE referencing style. There are good examples on the University of York website.

Appendix
Paste your code into the appendix so that it can be run through Turnitin and checked for plagiarism/similarity with your classmates.

Formatting
Do not use colourful/jazzy Word templates. They look amateurish and detract from the technical content.
Use sections and sub-sections to break the text up. Technical reports are not like essays. Section titles are normally bold and can be slightly larger font.
Use a consistent size for your images. Ensure they are of sufficient resolution. This is especially important for images with text in.
Create your own images, avoid copying from online. If you do, respect copyright and include a reference.
Taking pictures of images on the monitor using your smartphone is terrible practice and makes the report look amateurish. Use screen-shots.
If you take pictures of hardware, do it on a clear background (e.g. white paper) and clip as much as the background out as possible. Pictures of PCB’s on a messy lab bench look awful in a report!
Place images in between paragraphs. Do not embed them within paragraphs.
Write in the passive voice.
The multiplexer circuit was designed…

Do not write in the first person
I designed the multiplexer circuit…

Include page numbers and a table of contents.
Use consistent formatting. Do not jump between different fonts and font sizes within the body of the text (this usually happens when you cut-and-paste i.e. plagiarism!).
Write in full sentences. Avoid informal language.
The first time you use an abbreviation, you should include the expanded form e.g. SPI (Serial Peripheral Information).
Write clearly. I appreciate that English may not be your first language, but you are studying at an English-speaking University. If an explanation does not make sense, it detracts from the technical content.
For students who are registered with DSAS, your work is marked for content only.

Please you need to do the last WEEK#10 because i didn’t finish it , it will be next Tuesday our last lab of WEEK#10 , so you can do the experiment.

Coursework link : https://cgi.csc.liv.ac.uk/~grant/Teaching/COMP213/Assignments/FriendFace/Ass2/

In the first assignment you implemented the basic FriendFace functionality of joining up and making friends. Now it’s time to unleash that on the world. In this assignment you’ll implement a FriendFace server that makes that functionality available on the world-wide web. The FriendFace server allows anyone with a web connection (and who knows the address of the server) to use the system to register and make friends with others.

The FriendFace Protocol allows client programs to communicate with the FriendFace Server. It describes the format that requests from the client program should take, and the format of the responses from the Server to the client program. There are six kinds of request that a client program can make: each of these requests is made by the client program sending a number of non-empty lines to the server; each request is met with a response by the server, as detailed below. The response “o\n” indicates success; the response “x\n” indicates failure; and the response “?\n” indicates that the client hasn’t followed the protocol, i.e., the client’s request wasn’t syntactically correct.

Register a new member. In order to register a new member, the client sends
a line (i.e., a string ending with a newline “\n”) beginning with ‘0’
a non-empty line containing the desired name of the new member
For example, to register a new member with name “Moss”, the client should send “0\nMoss\n”; to register a new member with name “Jennywenny”, the client should send “0\nJennywenny\n”. The server responds with:
“o\n” if the request is successful; i.e., the given member name does not already exist in FriendFace, and is now added as a new member;
“x\n” if the request is unsuccessful because there is already a member with that name in FriendFace;
“?\n” if the client has not supplied a non-empty line for the desired name.
For example, if the FriendFace member list is (in the notation of the Maude spec)
[“Moss”, null] ~> null
(just one member, called “Moss”, with no friends), then the request “0\nJennywenny\n” will be met with the response “o\n” (success), and the member list will become
[“Jennywenny”, null] ~> [“Moss”, null] ~> null
(the order of members in the list is not important); the request “0\nMoss\n” will be met with the response “x\n” as Moss is already a member, and the member list would remain unchanged; and the requests “0\nDelina” and “0\n\n would both be met with the response “?\n”, as neither conform to the protocol (no second line in the first case; empty second line in the second case), and the member list remains unchanged.
Request a list of all friendship requests for a given member. In order to request a list of all the members who have asked to be friends with a given member, the client sends:
a line beginning with “1”; and
a line containing the name of the given member.
For example, “1\nRoy\n” would be the request to find the names of all members who have asked to be friends with Roy. The server responds with “o\n\n” if there are no friendship requests for the given member (this includes the case that the given member is not in fact a registered member); if there are requests for the given member, the server responds with “o\n” followed by the names of all members who have requested to be friends with the given member. For example, if Moss and Jennywenny have both asked to be friends with Roy, the response would be “o\nMoss\nJennywenny\n”. If the request is not properly formatted, the server responds with “?\n”. For example, “1\nRoy” would be met with “?\n”.
Submit a friendship request. In order to submit a friendship request, the client sends three lines:
a line beginning with “2”
a line containing the name of the member requesting friendship
a line containing the name of the member they want to be friends with.
For example, if the client wants to send a request from Moss to be friends with Roy, it would send “2\nMoss\nRoy\n”. The server responds with “o\n” if the request is successfully added, i.e., Moss and Roy are both members of FriendFace, and the request does not already exist; otherwise, if the request already exists, or if at least one of Moss and Roy are not registered members, the server responds with “x\n”. If the request is not properly formatted, the server responds with “?\n”. For example, “2\nMoss\nRoy” and “2\nMoss\n\n” would both be met with “?\n”, as neither provide three non-empty lines.
Accept a friendship request. In order to accept a friendship request, a client sends:
a line beginning with “3”;
a line containing the name of the member who requested the friendship;
a line containing the name of the member they want to be friends with.
For example, “3\nMoss\nRoy\n” is a request to accept Moss’s request to be friends with Roy. If a request for the two given members exists in FriendFace, the server removes the request from the system, adds each of the two members to the other’s list of friends, and responds with “o\n”. If there is no such request in FriendFace, the server responds with “x\n”. If the request is not properly formatted, the server responds with “?\n”. For example, “3\n\n\n” would be met with “?\n”.
Refuse a friendship request. In order to refuse a friendship request, a client sends:
a line beginning with “4”;
a line containing the name of the member who requested the friendship;
a line containing the name of the member they want to be friends with.
For example, “4\nMoss\nRoy” is a request to refuse Moss’s request to be friends with Roy. If a request for the two given members exists in FriendFace, the server removes the request from the system, and responds with “o\n”. If there is no such request in FriendFace, the server responds with “x\n”. If the request is not properly formatted, the server responds with “?\n”. For example, “4\n\nRoy\n” would be met with “?\n”.
Request a list of all the friends of a given member’s friends. In order to request a list of all the members who are friends of friends of a given member, the client sends:
a line beginning with “5”; and
a line containing the name of the given member.
For example, “5\nRoy\n” would be the request to find the names of all members who are friends with some friend of Roy’s, not including Roy himself (who is obviously a friend of each of his friends). The server responds with “o\n\n” if there are no such members (e.g., if Roy has no friends, or if all of his friends are friends only with him). If there are friends of friends of the given member, the server responds with “o\n” followed by the names of all members who have requested to be friends with the given member. For example, if Roy, Moss and Jennywenny are all friends with each other, and only with each other, then the request “5\nRoy\n” would be met with “o\nMoss\nJennywenny\n”. If the request is not properly formatted, the server responds with “?\n”. For example, “5\n” would be met with “?\n”.
Task 1: Specify the FriendFace server

Any request a client makes to the server is just a string. When the server receives such a string, two things happen:

the state of FriendFace is updated
the server sends a string to the client.
We’ll call the string that the client program sends the “input string”, and we’ll call the string that the server sends to the client in response the “output string”. How the state of the FriendFace is changed depends upon the request made by the client program. If the client registers a new member, the state will be updated by having one new member added to the list of members, assuming the requested name isn’t already taken. Or if the request is to accept a friendship request between two members, the state will change by updating the lists of friends of the two members. And so on. In order to specify the behaviour of the FriendFace server, we need to say, for any given input string received in any given FriendFace state:
what the resulting FriendFace state is, and
what the output string sent back to the client program is.
The functionality of the FriendFace server therefore takes two inputs: the input string sent by the client program, and the current Friendface state. The output is a pair consisting of the resulting FriendFace state and the output sent back to the client program. For example, if the input string is “0\nMoss\n” and the current FriendFace state is { null, null }, then the result should be the pair consisting of the FriendFace state { [“Moss”, null] ~> null, null } and the string “o\n”. Similarly, if the input is the string “0\nRoy\n” and that last FriendFace state, the output should be the FriendFace state { [“Roy”, null] ~> [“Moss”, null] ~> null, null } and the string “o\n”. And if the input string is “2\nRoy\nMoss\n” and the FriendFace state is the last one (with members Roy and Moss), then the output would be { [“Roy”, null] ~> [“Moss”, null] ~> null, [“Roy”, “Moss”] ~> null } and the string “o\n”. As a final example, if the input string is the same, i.e., “2\nRoy\nMoss\n”, but the FriendFace state is the one with just Moss as member, i.e., { [“Moss”, null] ~> null, null }, then the output should consist of the same state (i.e., no change to the state) and the output string “x\n”.
The file friendFaceServer.maude contains a partial specification of the FriendFace protocol. This specification uses utilities.maude that contains some useful operations for working with strings. Equations are given that specify how the server should respond to requests to register a new member. For example,

var S : String .
var FF : FriendFace .

cq S > FF = register(secondLine(S), FF) > okToken + “\n”
if S beginsWith registerToken and
S has 2 lines and
not isIn(secondLine(S), getMembers(FF)) .
describes successfully responding to a request to register a new member. For example,
“0\nMoss\n” > { null, null }
simplifies to
{ [ “Moss”, null ] ~> null, null } > “o\n” .
You should add equations to this file to specify how the server responds to the other requests that clients can make.
The operation

op _>>_ : StreamList FriendFace -> FriendFaceAndOutputs .
extends _>_ to take a list of input streams and produce a list of output streams. For example, “0\nMoss\n” “0\nRoy\n” “0Moss” >> { null, null } represents three client connections to the new FriendFace server, the first two of which are register-requests and the third of which doesn’t conform to protocol. The expected result would be
{ [“Moss”, null] ~> [“Roy”, null] ~> null, null } >> “o\n” “o\n” “?\n”
with two successful registrations and one protocol error message. Finally, operation getOutputs takes a list of input requests (strings), sends them to the new FriendFace state, and returns the list of responses from the server. For example, getOutputs “0\nMoss\n” “0\nRoy\n” “0Moss” gives result “o\n” “o\n” “?\n”. Your tests (see Task 3 below) should use getOutputs in this way.
Task 2: Implement the FriendFace server

Implement the FriendFace server in Java by writing a class FriendFaceServer in a file FriendFaceServer.java.

The server should be multi-threaded and for each client there should be a time-out on the socket connection so that the connection is closed if there is no input from the client program over a period of 5 seconds.
Your server should use an ExecutorService to execute threads, and you should include some means of shutting the server down cleanly. If there are still some threads running when the server is shut down, you should allow up to five seconds for these threads to complete before exiting the Java interpreter (see the APIs for how to do this).
Your server should be thread-safe. You should make it thread-safe without modifying FriendFace.java, and you should include in your in-line comments some indication as to why your implementation is thread-safe.
Task 3: Test the FriendFace server

The file friendFaceServer.maude contains some test reductions that show the expected outputs from four client connections. You should add more tests to this file, and include a main method in a file FriendFaceServerTest.java with corresponding tests. These should give the same results as your Maude tests.

While you are developing your code, it may be useful to test your server using telnet, or this example GUI (save the file, then run with java -jar MetaClient.jar).

What You Need to Submit

You should submit the following files (please use the names specified).

A file friendFaceServer.maude containing the equations that fully specify the FriendFace protocol, and some test reductions.
A file FriendFaceServer.java containing your implementation of the Friendface server.
A file FriendFaceServerTest.java w. This file should contain a main method with tests that give the same results as your Maude tests.
Any other Java files containing any other classes that your implementation uses. You do not need to re-submit your FriendFace code from the first assignment; I will run the tests in FriendFaceServerTest.java using the model solution. Only submit your FriendFaceServerTest.java file if your solution does not work correctly with the model solution.
Marking

This assignment contributes 25% of your final grade for this module, and will be marked according to how far the following requirements are met:

the Maude specification should correctly specify the FriendFace protocol, as described above;
the Java code should be laid out according to a consistent format (e.g., as laid out by the Java mode of Emacs), it should contain clear comments, and follow the standard Java naming conventions (ALL_CAPS for constants, CapitalisedNames for classes, and lowerCaseNames for methods and variables), see the Code Conventions for Java;
the Java code should correctly implement the functionality set out above, using functional decomposition where appropriate;
the Java code should be robust and able to handle unexpected input from clients;
the Java tests should agree with the Maude tests.
A first-class solution (70+%) will meet all these requirements fully; a 2.I solution (60-69%) will meet most but perhaps not all of these requirements (e.g., the specification or code may not quite implement all the desired functionality, or may lack comments, or have an untidy layout); a 2.II solution (50-59%) will probably have some more serious faults (e.g., the specification or code may fall some way short of all the desired functionality, or may contain syntactic errors); a third-class (40-49%) solution will have serious faults, though it should still show that a decent attempt was made (e.g., code that falls further short of being functional – though it still shouldn’t be too far away). A solution getting a failing grade will simply be bad. Failure to hand in a solution will get a zero grade.
