We are to design and implement a web application for Perficient that will facilitate a card sorting study. They need to be able to create accounts for the subjects of the study, setup the study, and retrieve the results of the study.

SIUE Instructional Services currently uses a pencil and paper system for their placement tests. This project will replace that system with computer system that registers the results with advising and the SIS mainframe.

Automate current paperwork for new SIUE course and program development forms. Generate an online interface for faculty use.

The goal of Black Hole Robotics is to make an autonomous robot to compete in the IEEE 2007 Region 5 robotics competition. The competition is a simulation of a solar system that recently developed a black hole. The robot must search for survivors and return them to their designated safe areas outside of the solar system. The team that saves all the survivors the most quickly wins.

The target task of this project is modeled after the American Association for Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) Robot Scavenger Hunt Challenge: a robotic system to search the Engineering Building for a list of objects will be developed. The code must be portable and the list of objectives must be easy to modify, as we will be working with at least two of the CS Department's robots. Working alongside the scavenger hunt project, a researcher will be developing a coordination system with the intention of applying it to the robots so that the search effort can be completed cooperatively as opposed to individually.
