Thursday 10th June: Programmable Logic Devices and Microcontrollers/Digital Systems Overview
Tom introduced the basic operations of these devices, with comprehensive diagrams of logic gates and demonstrations of a PIC microcontroller and Xilinx complex programmable logic device as part of the DSX D-Series prototyping kit created by the Engineering side of UTS:FEIT used in certain subjects taught at UTS such as Introductory/Advanced Digital Systems.
Thursday 6th May: Flash vs AJAX
Tina started a casual discussion about Flash and AJAX. While it is preferable to use both and Tina tried to be as neutral as possible, the discussion roughly ended with the conclusion that Flash still sucks. However, it won't matter which technology you choose if there are people using NoScript anyway.
Thursday 1st April: First year's learning in Software Development
Tina went through known problems in learning programming that most first year students in the past had been facing. A discussion was held towards the end to provide programming learning tips for first year students.
