Weekly Project Meetings
These meetings, every Friday morning at 9.00-10.00 (usually in lecture room 8, Information Engineering Building, Oxford) are where we present and discuss work in progress. Meetings are followed by further discussions, work-related or more general, over coffee in the Departmental cafe / common room.
