SYNOPSIS:

This  is  the final practice unit for Bachelor of Engineering students
majoring in Electrical and Electronic or Computer Systems Engineering.
Instrumentation and Control majors have the option of selecting either
this  practice  unit or 73051 Mechanical Practice 1, and  this  choice
will depend on their selection of elective units.

Day  students  will complete this laboratory work in conjunction  with
the  units listed above as Day co-requisites. In the case of  external
students  this  laboratory work will be performed during  a  one  week
residential school, during either year 6 or 7 of their course. If  the
latter,  the  unit  may  be  undertaken  immediately  prior  to  70061
Professional Practice 1, so that both may be completed over a two week
period.

This unit provides experimental work and project work in the areas  of
digital  sampling  and computer control, in signal  processing  topics
such as correlation, digital filtering and system identification,  and
in computer networking.

The principle objectives are to allow the student to develop knowledge
of  techniques,  apply  theory and interact  with  phenomena  in  real
situations,  and further develop problem identification  and  solution
skills together with a capacity for self learning.

OBJECTIVES:

On successful completion of this unit students will be able
to:

1. Apply signal processing and control theory and knowledge of
   computer networking in real situations.
   
2. Demonstrate problem identification and solution skills.
   
3. Demonstrate a high level of skill in observation,
   interpretation, analysis and communication.
   
4. Demonstrate an ability to work as part of a team.

OTHER REQUIREMENTS:

1    Attendance  at  a minimum of 80% of practical and/or  residential
     school  sessions is compulsory for a passing grade to be  awarded
     in this unit.
2    To  obtain  a passing grade, students must demonstrate competency
     by:  (i)  satisfactory  performance  of  individual  tasks;  (ii)
     satisfactory participation in group activities.
3    The  only final grades awarded in this unit are Pass (P) or  Fail
     (F) grades.
4    In  the event that a due date for an assignment falls on a  local
     public  holiday  in their area, such as a Show holiday,  the  due
     date  for the assignment will be the next day.  Students  are  to
     note  on the assignment cover the date of the public holiday  for
     the Unit Leader's convenience.
5    The   Faculty  of  Engineering  and  Surveying  will  NOT  accept
     submission  of  hand written or typed assignments  by  facsimile,
     email or computer diskette.  Students in remote locations who  do
     not  have regular access to postal services may be given  special
     consideration.
6    Students  are  to  retain a verbatim copy of all assignment  work
     submitted, for submission in the event that the original is  lost
     or damaged.
7    A  minimum  standard of communication skills must be demonstrated
     in order for a passing grade to be achieved.
