Official announcements

Dear students,
We just released our feedback on your OP1 in Moodle. This comes later than we had hoped for, so we are shifting the deadline for the OP1 revision to 23:59 on Thursday 8.10.
The grading rubric for OP1 totals 10 points, and the translation to the usual 1－6 grade scale is not linear, so 5/10 does not equal 3/6. We will be doing this translation using curved grading after we read your revisions.
Our feedback indicates how you can improve your OP1, and you will get a chance to do so for the revision. The grading rubric will stay the same, and the revision will count toward ⅓ of your OP1 grade. You are free to approach the revision any way you want, but if you got ≤5 then you probably need to consider redoing your OP1 from scratch.
(If you were confused by the request to contrast how "capabilities" and "revocations" are implemented in the two systems, please focus on comparing the two implementations of secure bindings. Secure bindings can be viewed as a performance-obsessed form of capabilities, even if capabilities are a more general concept than secure bindings.)
Best wishes,
POCS Staff
