CIS 501 Fall 2007 Class Schedule

This table contains the tentative class schedule. Lecture notes and readings are divided by topic, not by class period. For instance, we will spend the first two class periods discussing performance measurement and cost. The lecture notes and readings correspond to both class periods.
