knowledge, it is classified as a ``research'' project. For projects that are
not ``research'' projects, an extra task required. Examples of extra tasks
include usability testing, rigorous code walkthroughs, user manual
documentation, formal proof, etc. If a research project does extra work, the
extra work is graded as a bonus. The extra task is evaluated as part of the
