Some updates

My thesis will be on data mining (more details in the near future).

I had a great night tonight, thanks to two friends. You can see friends seldom, but if they are friends, it’s like you lived together everyday.
Am I forgetting $I_WON’T_TELL_YOU_WHAT_OR_WHO ? Perhaps. This is not a good move in the long run.

Papers reading

As I said before, I’m reading seminal papers for my Ms.C thesis. I still have to choose the topic of the thesis but Prof. Pietracaprina, Prof. Upfal and Prof. Peserico gave me two topics to choose from.

One of them has a laboratory. Two of them have projects to work on in groups.
I’m reading seminal papers on Data Mining (frequent itemsets in transactions) and [...]

Quick note

26/30 in Data and Algorithms 2. Uff. I’m not happy, although it’s a good note and the exam is considered to be difficult (but it wasn’t.)

Oh my!

The first exam on Monday went very well: I got 30 cum laude. Ok, it was “Real-time Operating Systems”, so I was very interested and studied it with pleasure. Today I gave “Data Structures and Algorithms 2″ and it went well, apart from a little distraction which is typical of mine, sigh.

Exams are approaching!

The first one is taking place on Monday morning. Today I sent my paper with my chosen exercises and will discuss it together with the professor on Monday. I don’t know why, but I’m thrilling nervous.
Why???

New term!

Wow, the exam went really really well: I got 30/30 and I’m very happy with it. It looks like I had studied enough ;).
Anyway, since exams never end, today the new term start. I follow three courses: Data Structures and Algorithms 2, Operating Systems 2, Theoretical Informatics.

Exams never end. False, at least relatively

Today I gave the final of Probability and Computing with Prof. Upfal and I’m officially on holyday until…well, the 26th, because I have another exam on January 11th and discrete algebra is all but easy to study…..
At least I can sleep longer..
