I forgot to blog earlier so I'm doing the entry during the break in class. Not much to talk about. I forgot to do this earlier as I usually do because I had to complete a semester long project for 533(Infrastructure class).

I haven't started on my rpml yet. I have to finish up the most recent lab as well. Too many projects going on... hard to keep up.

Last week I finally completed lab 3b. One of those problems that simply redoing a given part solved everything (despite being correct initially). I haven't even thought about doing the RPML document yet since I have a ton of projects in other classes as well. I'm hoping that RPML will go fairly smoothly as I don't plan on doing anything too complex other than putting things into sections and using 2 images.

Lab 4 is going fairly well. I haven't spent anymore time on it other than last week in lab, but I made some decent progress and may work on it a little today.

Finally got around to doing lab3b and it had trouble.. what a surprise. At least the majority of the Research Paper work is complete. Now it's time to work on all the team projects for all of my classes.. what fun.

Not much to say this week. I've still been slacking on both these items. I've found a few sources for my paper and gotten an idea on what I'd like to write about.. so that's a plus. Other than that, it's going to be a busy week/weekend.

Sadly, break is over. I have to get going on that paper which is due in a couple weeks! I forgot about lab 3b till today when I was browsing the blog entries and noticed people talking about it. Yet another thing to catch up on!

In the end, I'm very pleased that the exam was online. I liked the fact that you could look up the answers to confirm the initial instinct and it obviously helps when you don't have much of an idea what the answer is. The slides and book were extremely helpful. Hopefully I did well.

This week I'm looking forward to lab 3 and working with SAP. In one of my other classes we are at a similar stage with SAP (SAP BW). We have basically just created a large number of objects and just started working with them. I'm looking forward to building on past labs and working towards the big picture rather than just individual objects.

Last weeks lab went smoothly. I was somewhat familiar with creating objects since I'm also getting some SAP experience in 536 (Business Intel. which deals with data warehousing etc..). I felt more comfortable doing this lab than the last.. especially since we did a preview in class prior to lab.

I'm looking forward to doing some research on my topic for the term paper. I chose to do my paper on CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture). I mainly chose it because it was one of the provided topics. But after briefly skimming over the topic matter on Wikipedia, it seems interesting.
