DistOS 2014W Lecture 7

Project

We discussed moving the proposal due date back a week. We also discussed spending the class prior to that date discussing the primary papers people had chosen in order to provide preliminary feedback. Anil spent some time going through the papers from OSDI12 and discussing which ones would make good projects and why.

* Pick a primary paper.
* Find papers that cite that paper, papers it cites, etc. to collect a body of related work.
* Don't just give a history, tell a story!
