UMM CSci Senior seminar templates

LaTeX templates for University of Minnesota, Morris, Computer Science senior seminar proceedings and presentations.

There are three main components here:

• Annotated_bibliography has annotated_bibliography.tex and annotated_bibliography.bib, which provide an example of using LaTeX and BibTeX to generate an annotated bibliography.
• Sample_paper has sample_paper.tex along with a figure and a BibTeX file provide an example of using LaTeX and BibTeX to generate a basic paper.
• Sample_talk has Sample_talk.tex along with a number of photographs and PDF figures provide an example of using LaTeX and the Beamer package to generate a set of slides.

Both the annotated bibliography and the sample paper use sig-alternate.cls, which is our modified version of the ACM sig-alternate document class. The primary changes we've made to the ACM document class and examples are:

• Replaced the copyright notice with a Creative Commons license.
• Removed the ACM document fees.
• Removed the terms and categories, which seem to really just be confusing relic of a pre-search-engine era.
• Simplified the examples somewhat, removing features such as multiple authors that we're not likely to use.
• Changed the paper size to 8.5 by 11 from the default A4.

Since the annotated bibliography example and the sample paper both use sig-alternate.cls, we have a link to it in the annotated bibliography folder instead of a second copy. This will hopefully make it easier to ensure that we don't end up with two different versions out there with slightly different behaviors.
