The net aliase CS622@cs.uccs.edu I set up will send emails to your login@cs.uccs.edu. You need to set up a .foward file with email address to the mail server which you read your emails. Make sure you do not forward the email back to cs.uccs.edu. I have sent a few emails to CS622@cs.uccs.edu. If you did not see it, you should login to cs.uccs.edu to read it and set up the .forward file.
Class Album:
CS622 S2001 Class Photo Album and web pages (to be constructed).

This allows us to share research and project interests.
To help create the class photo album: Note that your login on cs.uccs.edu will be the first and middle initial concatenated with the first six characters of your last name.  If you do not have accessed to a scanner, please bring the photo in our next class time and I will scan it for you, then return it to you. I may bring in a digital camera for the photo next class time.
