Computing Wiki

Welcome to the Computing Wiki of Dr. Scot Anderson. This wiki is here for his classes and for personal projects. Most stuff is open as a normal wiki should be, but if you want to get involved in editing particular projects, let me know. Classes are on the ClassesPage, Worker (TA/RA) information is on the TaRa page.

Standard Technical Paper Templates and LaTeX Tips

WritingTechnicalPapersInLaTeX contains information about different LaTeX tools and templates for you to get started with. These will be especially useful for any of my upper division computing classes. This section contains useful links including DrAndersonsRulesForWritingPapers.

Posters

The SAU School of Computing has information at https://www.southern.edu/cs/resources/Pages/postersession.aspx.

Computer Definitions

ComputerTerms is a collection of definitions and explanations written during my own studies.Feel free to peruse this section - which is QUITE EXTENSIVE actually. If you find an error feel free to correct me on it. This wiki includes the ability to add <<latex(\LaTeX)>> inline, such as the symbol for complex numbers <<latex(\usepackage{dsfont} % $$\mathds{C}$$)>>. I use this quite often in the definitions. The following is an example of including LaTeX in a page format.

Einstein developed the famous equation for converting matter to energy.
\begin{equation}
   E = MC^2
\end{equation}
Based on this seemingly innocuous equation, the atomic bomb was made.

Personal Stuff

In addition to computing I: Play Baritone, Fly, SCUBA dive, Mountain bike, Rock Climb, Play Racquet Ball, and a host of more mondane things like meddle in electrical wiring and run a backhoe. For flying I created a flight plan Excel template (everyone seems to do this, but no one seems to share it). I also have an expanded check list for my Archer II (4052F):
