PIGS Link
by Rahul Maheswaran 14 Sep '17

14 Sep '17

Hey guys, I am so sorry for the delay. We still have a lot of communication issues around and I was focusing on that, forgetting to send the link. So I have decided that it will be much more practical to use the same link so we don't run into this issue again. After every PIGS, I will download the copy of that PIGs and delete the slides online, so it resets and you guys can use the same template for the next week. So go ahead and bookmark the link so you can use it for the entire semester. LINK: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1UgIqMJNdNWfSVrHCFNJ7Yky3W-6QVzZOUkn… I will follow up with the newsletter later. Cheers, Rahul

Just a reminder
by Rahul Maheswaran 11 Sep '17

11 Sep '17

Hey guys, Hope your week is going well. I know exams are coming up for some of you, and you're going to get busy. Just keep in mind that the notebooks are due by Wednesday 11.59pm. If your computer is syncing with sharepoint, you have nothing to worry about. If your computer isn't syncing with sharepoint, you can either do it on the webapp through sharepoint, or for now make your own notebook and get a shareable link and MAKE SURE you SEND IT to the TA. If that doesn't work either, you can just make a word document and send the file to Kelsey. As for team progress and work for this lab, please let me know if you want to make calls during lab time. (even if you did inform me last week, please pm me) Your semester timelines/Gantt charts are due this week, so make sure it is there on your PIGs. I will once again send out a link and you guys can put in your PIGs there. I think it's hassle free and you can work on it until Friday morning if you want to. Webmaster: The website is due this week (updated version that is) Cheers, Rahul

Week 4 Reminders
by Kelsey N Welch 10 Sep '17

10 Sep '17

EPICS-India, Week 4 is starting and a few things are due. Notebooks, budget, website and schedule. Notebooks are due for review Wednesday September 13th at 11:59pm. If you have access to your OneNote Notebook you do not need to do anything extra to turn in. If you do cannot access your Notebook you must turn in a digital format (ie. word document, personal onenote) of your notebook to sharepoint. Sharepoint location is: Sharepoint>india>Semester Documentation>2017 Fall>Notebooks. Upload your notebook here titled as your name. Lack of access to OneNote is not an excuse for not having a notebook. OneNote works on ECN computers as well. Budget, I believe Rishab has what he needs. Website, we did not take individual team pictures on Friday so you will need to do this in your team meetings and upload them to Sharepoint>india>Pictures>Team Members>Fall 2017 Team. Karthick needs these to update the website. My apologies for not doing it on Friday. Your semester schedules/gantt charts need to be a part of PIGS for Friday and should be incorporated into all future PIGS and your design document. Thank you, Kelsey Welch, E.I.T. Candidate for Masters of Science in Civil Engineering Structures EPICS Graduate Teaching Assistant
