Week #13 - [2021-5-9] This week was the last week of class. Our team had put the finishing touches on our proposal last week so we all gave it a quick look over again before coming to the conclusion that we had all of the information we needed to turn it in. So here is the link to our final TraQ proposal site: Final TraQ Proposal Site
Week #12 - [2021-5-2] This week since I had completed labs 1-10 (Documentation here: (D6 Labs) It left us with some more time to put the finishing touches on our proposal website. I went through and created the Project overview page here so that we had a place where all of the information and extra documentation outside of the class lessons we collected. Here is the link for that Project Overview. It also provided quick links that are only accessible from that page. It really was to rap up the report and tie everything together.
Week #11 - [2021-4-25] This week was lesson 11! Which was the last lesson for the semester. In this lesson, we discussed in class the key properties when it comes to actually addressing implementation for our ideas. Our group had already created a functioning implementation by the time we got to this lecture so it was very valuable to see where we could have made changes had we waited to start the implementation. We also worked more as a group this week on our website and updating some of the previous lessons and were able to get closer to getting out app functional Jayden and Nate were working on mending the frontend and back end aspects together. Lastly, I was able to complete lab ten to the best of my ability. However, I did run into an issue with part B. You can see the documentation here: Lab 10
[Contribution] I found out this week that with my research with professor Kruger, I actually received honorable mention for the NCWIT ( National Center for Women & Information Technology) National Collegiate research Honorable Mention which only 12 people in the whole country received. The actually winners for the award were from places like Harvard, MIT, and CIT and amongst the other Honorable mentions were: Standford, Johns Hopkins, Columbia, Berkley, and now Stevens!!!

Week #10 - [2021-4-18] This week in class we tackled lesson 10, in that we were able to learn how to evaluate alternative times and how to rank and assign weighting factors to the design goals. After that, we ventured into decision matrix like Kepner-Tregoe and other factors that play into creating them. From there we were able to go back and revise our design analysis section of our proposal which you can see here: TraQ Design Analysis. Lastly, I was able to go through and complete labs 9 which you can see documentation for here: Lab 9
[Contribution] As we were learning about Design analysis I was curious to find some more information on the benefits and how to accurately complete it for our project and I was able to find this link which I thought was beneficial: https://www.decision-making-confidence.com/kepner-tregoe-decision-making.html and also this link http://www.free-management-ebooks.com/news/kepner-tregoe-matrix/
Week #9 - [2021-4-11] This week we worked more on the documentation on our website. We were able to make more progress on the documentation sections: Needs Assessment, Problem Formulation, Solution Development, Intellectual Properties, Abstraction & Modeling. Moving forward we will continue to work on: Synthesis, Ethics & Liability, and Hazards & Failure Analysis I also went through and completed Lessons/Labs 7&8 where you can see the documentation here: Lab 7 & Lab 8.
Week #8 -[2021-4-4] This week we went through and made some more development on our front and back end of our app to move closer to end goals in the app. Here is the link to our repo's to see our progress: Backend Repo Link & Frontend Repo Link. I also went through and completed Lessons/Labs 5&6 and you can see the image here: Lab 5 & Lab 6
Week #7 -[2021-3-28] This week our group set up a plan for the duration of the project, we set goals and finished the in class exercises. We also made a list of all the tasks that have to be done for the project here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-UI-6m6qS-3eSOTiIzC8RgnHz1tWWN9F0m6s4Rf3yks/edit?usp=sharing We also began setting up our initial commits and set ups for the front and back end Repo's Here are the links to those: Backend Repo Link & Frontend Repo Link
[Contribution] As a way to be able to code live with each other sort of like google docs we found a way to be able to simultaneously code with each other via live share. It is an add in for VScode and more info is about it here : https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=MS-vsliveshare.vsliveshare
Week #6 - [2021-3-21] This week my group and I decided our topic for our semester project. We are doing a contact reacing app and we began working through all of the exercises relating to the project and created the git hub repo here: https://sites.google.com/stevens.edu/traq/home and created the site for the documentation which will be linked here.
Week #5 - [2021-3-14] This week I followed the lesson 4 instructions to be able to complete lab 4. I was able to run all of the instructions except ran into a run time error when trying to run the Django server. I also coordinated with my group a time this Monday to be able to pick out our project topic and complete the corresponding exercises. [Link to lab documentation] The screenshots and github code will be uploaded in this week after I figure out the server error.
Week #4 - [2021-3-2] This week I was able to get my pi and go through labs 1-3 [Link to lab documentation] I was able to install the Raspberry Pi OS and then set up all of the configurations. Unfortunately due to lab 2 being almost completely hardware-oriented, I was not able to gain results from it on my own but I still have documentation in the link provided above. Lastly, I was able to complete Lab 3 and produce the desired results. I also provided things I was able to learn in the documentation.
[Contribution] [Link to lab documentation] Here is the link to my lab documentation that has what I was able to learn from labs 1-3 it also contains the link to the GitHub repo where my new files have been pushed
Week #3 - [2021-2-21] I emailed Kevin Lu about personal family things that have come up in the past week about an extension for Lab 2.
Week #2 - [2021-2-12] This week I went through lab 1 on the class GitHub. I read through the instructions and took note of what I needed to do. I will not have access to my own pi until next week. My pi has Raspbian on it from when I took CPE-390 so as soon as I get it I will have to update it to the new software. I did further research into how to make the install as smooth as possible. I was able to find a really useful video to assist with the install which is my contribution below. I also created the Lab section on this website [ LABS ] and updated it with Lab 1.

Week #1 - [2021-2-2] This was the first week of class so during lecture we went over the general course info and started going over some of the material. I also spent some time updating my website to accommodate for this class rather than digital system design. I added this tab and started the set up for the weekly logs. I also updated my GitHub to start a repository for this class and posted both that and the link to this website in the class chats on canvas.
