All 32 curriculum papers stand in the Compendium, and all are available as .pdf-files. There are 23 papers retained from the 2003 curriculum, while 9 have been added in 2005.

The starred parts (*) are not curriculum and not printed in the Compendium. However, 11 "old" papers are available as .pdf-files for your convenience. The Compendium also includes non-curriculum (starred) slides for R1a (58 slides on the REBOOT project, also available as an .ps-file).

Slides made in conjunction with the course will be made available incrementally, and also put on the course web site (sec. 7 below).

Historical note: In 2003: R19-R25 were added. In 2005: A6-A10, T6, and R26-R30 were added; and similar amounts of stuff were each time taken out (starred). In 2007: A11-A12 and R31-R32 were added, R28-R29 were updated, while A9, A10, R9, R12 and R20 were taken out (starred).

"Pensum part" refers to the curriculum list above.

The course will be arranged as a colloquium, due to the teaching load of prof. Conradi.

The responsible person for each pensum part must prepare presentation slides, copy them before each lecture/colloquium, and send the .ppt-file to Reidar Conradi (conradi@idi.ntnu.no). You may have to contact the course responsible for possible slides from previous years, but most are available on the web site.

And write in English!

Exam is on xx Aug. 2009, oral.
