Project

CMS, the Course Management System used by Computer Science and other courses at Cornell, has been developed over the years by teams of students supervised by Professor Andrew Myers. Several years ago a CS 5150 team expanded the system so that it can be used outside Cornell.

This year's project is to redesign the scheduling interface to CMS. We want to add new functionality for scheduling events and viewing scheduled events.

In addition the team will carry out performance-oriented redesign. This will require diagnosing where performance bottlenecks exist and changing the design in a judicious way to improve performance of the entire system.

Experience with J2EE programming, database programming with JDBC, web application design, and Java profiling will be very helpful.
