Below you can find the instructions
Juan sent on the 17/11/23, for those of you that have/want
to do the new homework.
----
Dear students,
Regarding the network security homework, we had a discussion
with the course coordinator, as well as the coordinators for
both the EMSE and MUSS masters. As result, we decided to
offer the chance to everyone to be evaluated only on 3
homeworks (instead of four). In more detail, here are the
two options:
If you submitted your homework prior to the leak (Thursday
13:23) then we will grade your submitted homework normally
unless you send us an email by Monday, November 20,
informing us that you prefer your submitted homework not to
be graded. In that case you will be evaluated only on three
homeworks. Since this group was not really affected by the
leak, there is no option of submitting the new homework to
replace the old one.
For everyone else (i.e., if you submitted after the leak, or
if you did not submit at all) we will release a new homework
by Monday. We will try our best to make the new homework as
related as possible to the old one so that they are of
similar level and if you did some work for the old homework
you benefit from that. In any case, you can read the new
homework and decide whether to submit a solution, or not to
submit a solution at all. If you do not submit a solution to
the new homework, then you will be evaluated on three
homeworks. If you submit a solution to the new homework we
will evaluate you on four homeworks. Needless to say, you
cannot submit a solution to the new homework and then decide
to be only evaluated on three homeworks.
We worked hard to come up with a solution that we believe
minimizes the impact of this unfortunate situation. We
understand that each of you may have been affected in a
slightly different way by this mess, but we cannot do
case-by-case arrangements.
Best regards,
Juan
