Assignments
CS431 - Data-Intensive Distributed Analytics (Winter 2026)

Note: The schedule is created by throwing darts at a calendar.
Assignments are set up to be due:

• At least 2 weeks after release. (Often 3).
• At least 1 week after the previous assignment (last assignment is an exception because it's a short one).
• At least 1 week after the last lecture of that module.
• Not counting reading week as time to work on assignments (it's supposed to be a break)

Assignments are due at 4PM, on Wednesdays unless otherwise noted.
