JCU Downloads (the original swan files)

Explanation:

These are the "original swan files", made famous by the fact students are lazy, and so always wanted to borrow my study notes. So one day I decided if I just uploaded them people like Josh wouldn't bug me so much...... and the rest is history baby! I hope these notes help people, although, with every year that passes, I suppose the content gets slightly less relevant.

Quick Key/Guide:

-- particularly helpful
-- good quality
Right click then "save target as". If you want to download quickly use uni machines (or get ADSL!).

Subject Summaries:

It's always a lot easier to read off paper than off a computer screen. Hopefully, most of the subject material from the subjects below hasn't changed since I did the course.

year1: (2001)

• cp1200 - summary (.doc) (721 kB) - each lecture = a few pages.
  
• cp1500 - summary (.doc) (307 kB) - crappy subject = crappy notes... law of man
• ma1000 - summary (.doc) (357 kB) - good - summaries course in 5 pages - includes all formula you'll need to memorize and/or "cheat-sheet" for the exam
• cp1300 - summary (.doc) (1.16 MB) - pretty good - approx 60 pages.
• ma1401 - summary (.doc) (215 kB) - good - summaries course in 5 pages. how much do you love me?
• ma1401 - test aid (.doc) (164 kB) - cheat sheets mean so much to me.
• cp1010 - summary (.doc) (560 kB) - nice to go over once before exam

year2: (2002)

• cp2005 - summary (.doc) (670 kB) - helped me cram. I'm happy
• cp2230 - cisco sem1 notes (.doc) (5.2 MB) - pretty good
• cp2230 - cisco sem2 notes (.doc) (3.6 MB) - not complete - arrghh!
• cp2240 - cisco sem4 notes (.doc) (7.3 MB) reduced version (1.9 MB) - basically Colin's notes in word file - some is missing. (note: reduced version has reduced quality pics)
• cp2240 - cisco sem3 notes (.doc) (5.7 MB) reduced version (2.1 MB) - basically Colin's notes revised in a single convenient word doc - ready to be printed & crammed. Some of Colin's original mistakes have been unintentionally preserved/overlooked - especially Chapter 8. (note: reduced version has reduced quality pics)

Old Assignments:

NOTE: Lecturers are suppose to change all assignments every year - and for this reason there is no problems with showing student and old assignment as a learning reference.

year1: (2001)

• cp1010 (multimedia) - documentation (.zip) (42 kB) - useful for a reference. gives you a good idea of what you need.
• cp1200 (c++ 1) - assignments (.zip) (76 kB) - a few basic assignments; shows you how do documentation & easy structure charts (use excel & turn on "snap to grid").
• cp1300 (c++ 2) - assignments (.zip) (37 kB) - documentation& code for: parking program (using classes), tic-tac-toe game & an address book program.

year2: (2002)

• cp2004 (java) - backgammon ass (.zip) (257 kB) - I managed to get the gameplay working, but instead of a drag & drop approach to moving checkers (which was pretty much given to us in a help file) I decided to try my own method using button.
• cp2010 (adv. multimedia) - project (.zip) (2.77 MB) - contains the flash (.fla) files which comprised my assignment. May help you understand flash better.... or may not.
• cp2010 (adv. multimedia) - celestial fighter game (.zip) (216 kB) - a little vertical-scroller/shooter game (.fla file).
• cp2010 (adv. multimedia) - documentation (.zip) (488 kB) - useful for a reference. gives you a good idea of what to write.
• cp2005 (comp. architecture) - auction assignment (.zip) (17 kB) - uses semaphores to simulate a special auction.

year3: (2003)

• cp3003 (Internet Tech) - all 3 assignments (.zip) (56 kB) - assignments will change every year, but seeing my code should help.
• cp3046 (IT Project 1) - everything (.zip) (3.0 MB) - this is all the work (including documentation & presentations) I did for the subject. Starting from this year we had to do projects individually.
• cp3047 (IT Project 2) - documentation (.zip) (3.4 MB) - this is the bulk of the documentation I submitted. If you want a copy of my Exam Creator program you may wish to e-mail me.
• cp2060 (computer graphics) - program & code fragments (.zip) (0.7 MB) - a working version of my "dance factory" program, plus advice & pieces of the code I wrote (I can't include complete code, or else you might copy it).
• cp3120 (OO software engineering) - complete website (.zip) (3.5 MB) program only (.zip) (300 kB) - website includes all documentation and code. I also threw in some survival advice (in a text file).

honours stuff: (2004)

• cp5080_(Lit_Review) (.zip) (0.8 MB) - probably not that helpful - just reminents of work.
• cp5090_(Sci_Research_Methods) (.zip) (3.2 MB) - as above.
• cp5110_(Cryptography) (.zip) (1.6 MB) - as above.
• cp5170_(AI_&_Grid_Networks) (.zip) (0.7 MB) - as above.

Miscellaneous:

NOTE: HEY! Just because I have a color-coded timetable doesn't make me a girl! I resent that. Pink is a perfectly masculine colour.

• Subject Results Template (.xls) (79 KB) - once you work out how to use it, this spreadsheet is excellent for determining what you need to get that grade you want
• Lecture Timetable Template (.xls) (54 KB) - most people like to design their own pretty timetables - here's one I made earlier. Err..... at least it's colorful.
• UNIX commands reference card (.pdf) (12 KB) - you'll need these UNIX commands in cp1300 (& possibly others) - and, lets face it, these commands are easy to forget. so here they all are on a single, simple sheet.
