Senior Seminar / Final Quarter Chapter 3
Hello Everyone. My senior seminar presentation is on Wednesday of next week. Here is my current progress:
Senior Seminar:
I have 16 slides in a power point presentation, and a written outline of what I want to talk about. This weekend I'm going to go home and put the finishing touches on the presentation by adding pictures, and maybe creating some example waveforms.
While I still don't feel like an expert on the Fourier Transform I feel like I have definitely learned something, and it will certainly be an informative talk to anyone who hasn't learned anything about DSP or related topics. I am looking forward to it. I'm going to wear a tie.
Senior Seminar / Final Quarter Chapter 2
This week has been busy, but rewarding.
Senior Seminar:
This week I met with my professor on Wednesday. I showed him a possible outline. He thought it was too much for a 30 minute talk, so I am pairing down the focus for the talk to just the Fourier Transform.
I began reading a book entitled "The Discrete Fourier Transform" by D. Sundararajan. It is pretty clear so far, and seems to be a good starting point.
I started making power point slides on the Sampling Theorem before I met with my professor, so I will have to go back and edit the presentation.
Senior Seminar / Final Quarter Chapter 1
Hello everyone. I'm Mike. I'm studying mathematics at University of California at Santa Cruz. This is my last quarter and I have a talk that I have to give, and a senior project that I have to do. The idea of these posts will be to track my progress on this project, and my progress in my other classes. I hope that this will help motivate me to do my very best in my last year in university.
Here is the class rundown in order of difficulty:

Why
Generally the order goes "who, what, where, when, why", but I think that this one is the most important, so its right up here at the top. Why we do atlHack is a complicated topic, and it has its own page. Here's the short version:
Computing isn't a nerd sport anymore. You probably own an iPod, might check the news on your laptop at the local coffee shop, and own a car with more than twenty computer processors in it (the days of the gear-head are gone - today's car tuner is part computer geek). Computing is a culture: a culture of artists, musicians, entrepreneurs, industrialists, consumers, scientists, and philosophers.
atlHack stickers in Macon
If you happen to live in Middle Georgia and want an atlHack sticker, there are a few of them on the hand-outs table at the back of the Joshua Cup near downtown.
