SWE 432 Homework 9
Fall 2009
Ajax: Due November 5


The purpose of this assignment is to help you become more familiar with Ajax. As with the previous assignment, the application is a vocabulary builder. This week, you should build an improved vocabulary builder in Ajax and deploy it on the Hermes Cluster.

Interactions that take advantage of Ajax are required this week. For example, you might want to offer a "hints" mode as users type.

Grading: Nonworking implementations will not receive any credit. A minimal, but working implementation will receive 7 to 9 points. For full credit, use appropriate Ajax features, follow decent usability standards, avoid bugs, and exceed the minimal requirements by some identifiable delta. Really super solutions are eligible for a bonus point.

Provide links that make it easy for the GTA to access all of the various files that your solution uses.

As with previous assignments, a paper copy of your assignment is required if you are present in class. If you are absent, a paper copy is not required. (1 point)
