Welcome to the Wiki of the course '''Efficient Route Planning''' in the summer term 2011

The course is given by Prof. Dr. Hannah Bast and takes place every Friday from 2:15pm until about 3:45pm, in room 00-026 (µ-Saal) in building 101. The first lecture is on Friday, May 6 and the last lecture is on Friday, August 5. There will be no lecture on the following dates: Friday, May 27 (FAM-workshop) and Friday, June 17 (pentecost holidays). That is 12 lectures altogether.

The teaching assistant for this course is Mirko Brodesser (brodessm@informatik.uni-freiburg.de). The responsibles for the supporting systems (Daphne, SVN, Forum, Jenkins) are Jens Hoffmann (hoffmaje@informatik.uni-freiburg.de) and Axel Lehmann (lehmanna@informatik.uni-freiburg.de).

Exam

The written exam (for the master students) takes place on Monday, August 15, 2011, from 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm in room 00-026 (µ-Saal) in building 101.
The Klausureinsicht (for the written exam) takes place on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, from 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm in room 02-028, building 51 (office of Prof. Bast).
The oral exams (for the bachelor students) take place on Wednesday, August 17, 2011 starting from 2:00 pm, 30 minutes each. You should have received an email from the Prüfungsamt about your exact time slot.
There is a dedicated section on the forum for aksing questions on the exam.
