I've looked at Cal-Tech and almost keeled over at the tuition cost. Nice that they are only about 30 minutes from here. Carnegie-Mellon would be sweet since I've studied the PSP (Personal Software Process) a bit and that is where it was started.

What tuition cost? :confused: At the PhD level, IF (and that's a mighty big IF) you do get accepted in (it, Brown and Princeton are the most selective universities) PhD tuition is paid for, even for out of state folks or internationals like me.

Like candy :) I'd nearly do anything to get accepted there. Again, same deal as with CalTech for the PhD tuition, in fact, almost all universities in the states have that.

Get in on a fellowship then it doesn't matter. It is something to keep in mind if you do not get a fellowship or it comes up short.

I called them man. All PhD students are supported through fellowships, TA-ships and/or RA-ships. You think I could afford a PhD there if it weren't for that? Besides, that's why my safety schools are in Missouri (Columbia), Albany, Tennessee (Knoxville), Virginia and Georgia (Athens) Off of the CalTech website: Are stipends available for graduate students? In general, students offered admission to graduate study at Caltech are simultaneously offered a package of financial support that pays all tuition charges and provides them with a stipend. Financial support for graduate students comes in the form of fellowships, research assistantships, teaching assistantship, or some combination of fellowship and assistantship support. In most cases financial assistance is awarded on an annual basis, but there are also multi-year fellowships available. In any case, Caltech guarantees that the stipends that students receive in subsequent years of graduate study are as great or greater than their stipend for the first year. A separate application for requesting financial aid is not required. Applicants requesting additional information on financial assistance may contact the Office of the Dean of Graduate Studies at (###) ###-####.

Thanks for the info. I'll take a look at them again. I did look at UCR (University Cal, Riverside) and they are a potential option as well.

No worries bro. I met a guy that graduated from UCR, biggest pompous jackass I've ever had the misfortune of meeting. Tainted the whole school for me.

That would be cool. You could have honors of trying to implement something like that.

One time I had an idea to implement all maths I study, but there had been so much of it that after a month I had five another issues to think of... BTW there are ready-to-use free software which do that[^].

I know what you mean. I've had many ideas that came to mind, but other more important tasks ended up taking priority. Cool link (the Maxima one looks really cool) :-D

Yep. Allergies had nothing to do with math, but the dry and windy weather does.

Ahh. My BS and one MS degrees were in Mathematics. Automata never came into play. None of the CS classes I took had it either. I definitely would have enjoyed it if I took it.

The fellow who taught the automata course I was in, had a Bachelors in math, Masters and PhD in CS. He did a really good job at explaining it, and bridging both CS and Math together in terms of automata theory.

More like ln because the curve because more slight as the x (number of posts) increases :D

PSP? Have you tried using that in a practical working environment? Its all fine in Academia, but a tremendous burden when you actually try to apply the principals to what you are working on.

Not necessarily so if you have automated tools doing the drudgery work for you.

I'd be interested to know what automated tools you are using. Currently we are using the PSP Dashboard, which is an Open source project, as it seems to be the only tool out there that sufficiently covers the tenets of PSP, but even that I find to be cumbersome and not much use. Of the data I have collected using PSP, none of it seems to have any intrinsic value when it comes to predicting how long my next project will take or how big it will be, and it just seems like an awful lot of red tape for little or no gain. It also seems that the originators of the whole Concept of PSP have no interest in creating software that actually uses the principals that they espouse. The spreadsheets that come with the course notes for PSP and TSP are laughable. If there is another automated tool that is freely or commercially available, I would be interested to hear about it. :)
