Lab 4 is due Friday 6/17/05 at 12:00:00PM PST. Begin the submission process at least 30 minutes early, because the timestamps I go by are what the CourseWeb system says, browsers can crash, networks can stall, etc.
Be sure to include a README file with the following:
As part of the report for lab 4, you need to generate some data plots showing the performance of your web server. Explain what your graphs show and why the performance behaves the way it does. Look at the Flash paper for some ideas of what to plot (e.g. bandwidth vs. connections). If you add additional optimizations, generate before and after plots to show the improvement.
Write this and include the figures in an HTML or PDF file. NO MS WORD!
Create a tar & gzipped file containing all of the code and Makefile in your lab4 directory, and your README, and name it like:
first_last1_first_last2_lab4.tar.gz
MAKE SURE YOU TEST THE TARBALL FILE to make sure it includes all of your code, Makefile, and README you need BEFORE you submit the file. If your file is corrupt, we cannot grade it, and since it's the end of the quarter, you will receive a zero. ONE person per team should then submit the tarball file through CourseWeb. If you are working with a partner from Section 1, they should submit your code on their CourseWeb page.
Submissions after 6/17/05 at 12:00:00PM PST will be considered late and consume one of your free late days per day late, with a maximum of three. Remember that you only get three late days for the entire quarter. If you have already used your three free days, the late penalty is >= 1 grade per day.
If you have any questions about the submission instructions, please ask me ASAP.
