 ==== Project assignments accepted (so far) ====
-This are the assignments already agreed with the teacher (we list also these that have been accepted "in principle" and must to be finalized)
+Those students that wish to try to pass the exam in the winter term (January or February 2010) should agree ASAP an assignment with the professor, sending him an email with subject **SPM Final Project** and with the following information:
-^ Group members ^ Assignment ^ Notes ^
+  * name of the student (students, max 2) doing the project
-|Sandro Montanari, Klevis Vishkulli | APPL.1 | |
+  * project chosen (class, type)
-|Andrea De Salve | APPL.x | image collage |
+  * implementation tools to be used
-| Raglianti Marco | RTS.2 | MapReduce C++ |
+  * major unspecified details fixed (e.g. APPL.x : kind of application chosen)
-| Andrea Cimino | APPL.1 | |
-| Tiziano De Matteis | APPL.3 | sequence alignment |
+Students that want to try to pass the exam in a later session should agree the project assignment with the processor (same email procedure) before actually start working. E.g. if they start to prepare the exam/project in may, **before** making actual work, they should send the professor a message "SPM Final Project" and wait for professor's ACK message.

+=== rdist ===
+rdist is a Unix command that can be used to distribute files across a network.
+Have a look at the **man rdist**
+Basically, you can write a //distfile// file such as:
+  HOSTS = (fujim1 fujim2 fujim3 fujim4 fujim5)
+  MPICH = (/tmp/mpich/bin /tmp/mpich/lib)
+  mpi:
+  ${MPICH} -> ${HOSTS}
+        install;
+and by typing the command
+  rdist mpi
+you'll clone the directories /tmp/mpich/bin and /tmp/mpich/lib of the local machine to the machines listed in HOSTS. This command could be suitably used to install "on the fly" some software on the machines of the computer rooms that do not provide that software by default. As an example, to use mpich, you can follow these steps:
+  - download mpich code, ./configure and make --install-dir=/tmp
+  - prepare a proper distfile
+  - make a tar.gz of the /tmp installation (inlcuding the distfile) and save it to your home
+Once you have done the initial configuration, you can install on the fly mpich on the machines in the HOST variable of the distfile as follows:
+  - copy the .tar.gz file to /tmp and tar -xf it
+  - rdist distfile
+and that's it (Don't forget to include /tmp/mpich/bin in the PATH !!!)
