• Too busy, or too quiet

  20 February 06 • 0 comment

  Quite and Busy. Life has a strange cycle of being busy, and being quiet. Since I first submitted my thesis this has been really clear. There were two months between when I submitted my thesis to Senate House, and the day of my viva. Two months in which I had very little structure in my [...]

• Refactoring and Correcting

  13 December 05 • 2 comments

  Spending a lot of time at the computer has one big benefit: I get a lot done, or at least can do :-) Last night I spent a few hours while watching TV and chatting to friends refactoring the forum software I have written, which eventually will be used to power the universitydancesport website. Its [...]

• Hat and Thesis

  Not the best day ever. I started off by loosing my hat. Was in a coffee shop for lunch after running some errands this morning, and I left without taking my hat with me. When I went back to get it 5 mins later it was gone. Someone just got a new hat for xmas! [...]

  A week ago I sat the viva for my PhD. I passed! I’m now a Doctor. I’m only just starting to find it sinking in. I spent a day or so convinced I was going to get an e-mail from the examiners saying they had changed their mind, then a few days thinking I wouldn’t be [...]

  Well it’s a while since I have written anything here. I have been having some down time, relaxing after my PhD submission. I now have a date for my Viva, the 1st Dec.

  Well My PhD is now down, and handed in. Now I have to wait for the examiners to receive it and then sit my viva. Something I should story worrying about but it’s liable to be two months or so away yet. I have some pics of my thesis, including a close up of the [...]

  Today I finished another chapter to first draft. This leaves me with just four more chapters to write to first draft standard, and then I will have an entire first draft thesis!

  Well the final stage of my PhD are now well and truly underway. I have written a small thesisometer to monitor the progress of my writing. I have also created a currently empty thesis page which will get updates when I can be bothered to put them up :-) I have spent this week sorting [...]

  A while ago I wrote about having the deadline for a submission to The Computer Journal extended. Now I have just received word that the paper has been published. You can read the paper on The Computer Jounral’s Pages. Though I am not the sole author of the paper, I feel very proud of it, [...]

• PhD Write up

  15 April 05 • 0 comment

  I have just had a meeting with my supervisor, discussion the shape of my thesis. I am now at the preliminary stages of writing up. I have one last set of experiments to code and run, which will form a Case Study for the thesis, and probably be the most interesting part of it. The [...]
