About Your Presentation
   Stay on time!
       Whole presentation: 10-12 minutes
              You will be cut off at 13 minutes for Q&A
              On time is more important than exact number of slides
              Most groups take too long if they don’t practice
       At least two team members shall present each time
       Each team member presents at least twice
       Slides submitted in advance and run on TA laptop

   Be professional
       Speak loudly enough to hear in back row
       Do not wear hat, coat, or gloves
       Do not chew gum or have objects in mouth
       Practice your talk before you give it
       Try to minimize “Ah” “Uhm” “You Know”

Process Execution Example
 Each group discusses a module
 Select from the following:
       Door Control
       Drive Control
       Dispatcher


   You MUST have implementation and test
    completed for presented module
       Its OK if you’re still debugging

Overall goal
   Demonstrate you followed process
       Show how you did steps of the design process
        (Statechart  Code  Testing)

   It’s OK to focus on one or two transitions
       Starting with the statechart
       Identify specific transitions
       How do transitions show up in implementation?
       Show unit tests exercise transitions
       Discuss how integration and acceptance tests
        include transitions
       What problems did you find?
              How did revisions impact design?
Group #N                        Student Name           7
Process Execution Outline
   Brief recap (if necessary)
       Scenario/sequence diagram/requirement
   State chart
       Identify specific transition(s) and associated states
   Implementation
       Illustrate how transition was implemented in code
   Unit testing
       Show how a unit test exercised the transition
       Show injections and assertions
   Integration and acceptance tests
       Discuss which of these tests exercise this transition
   Design revision
       Discuss an example of a revision in your design during
        process execution and impact of that revision

Project Statistics
   Statistics are for all modules for current week hand-in
       Not just the single module you present
       Probably this is a slide with a big table
       Leave entries with “n/a” for ones that don’t apply to you yet
   Number of scenarios/sequence diagrams
       Also, number of sequence diagram arcs
   Number of behavioral requirements
       Count up the numbers (7.1, 7.1.1, 7.1.2 count as two)
   Number of statecharts
       Also, total number of states
       Also, total number of arcs
   Number non-comment lines source code you have written
       Do not count blank lines or comments
   Testing information:
       Number unit tests
       Number integration tests
       Number acceptance tests
   Number of outstanding defects and issue log entries

Lessons Learned & Open Issues
   Problems that you have already solved
       How they came up
       What did you do to solve them
       Process failures? Which part of process?

   Which strategies (team, technical, etc.)
    have worked well, and which have not?

   Open issues
       Biggest unsolved issue?
       How do you plan to solve it?
       Open issues are not incomplete parts

Common Presentation Errors
   Many bullet items more than one line long
   Fonts smaller than 16 point
       Beware powerpoint auto-resize
       Fonts in diagrams count too!
              This font is pretty tiny and should only be used for details (16 pt)
              This font is too small and shouldn’t be used (14 pt)

   Poor personal presence
       Wearing outdoor coats, any hat, torn shirts, T-shirt
       Chewing gum
       Talking to front row instead of back row
   Poor time management
       You must speak for 2.5+ minutes for individual grade
        and at least two non-trivial slides
       We’ll give you 5 & 2 minute warnings for talk

Logistics
   Presentations due at 9 AM day of
    recitation when your group presents
       Simply include it in submission directory
       ../ece649/Public/handin/presentations/

   We understand the elevator is not
    complete
       Demonstrate you are following process
       If you are an early presenter, put in what you
        have
   See course web page for time slots
       Slots will run in order stated on web page
