CPE/CSC 480-F09 Artificial Intelligence Schedule

The following table provides a draft schedule. It lists the topic for a particular week, together with references to the respective chapters in the text book "Artificial Intelligence - A Modern Approach" (AIMA) by Stuart Russell and Peter Norvig. Material will be made available as the course proceeds, so some links will not work initially. This schedule is tentative, and may be subject to some changes.

The assignments are typically due two weeks after distribution. The exact due dates are given in the assignment handouts.
