Week 11 – CST499 Fall 2025 Capstone

This week our team worked on improving the summarizer service. The summarizer uses an LLM to generate concise summaries from the clean data provided by the extractor. The summaries are generated in English and translated into traditional and simplified Chinese. We were also able to implement automated publishing of our project using GitHub Actions and GitHub pages.

My main contribution this week was to improve the UX/UI design. Following feedback from our advisor, Dr. Dongji Feng, we added a homepage in addition to the main wiki interface. I implement a homepage featuring a search bar that allows users to directly search for tiddlers stored on the wiki. Once the user selects a tiddler, the wiki automatically opens with the chosen tiddler displayed on the story river. From there, users can continue using the built-in search bar to find tiddlers.

 Our plan for next week includes implementing unit, integration, and system testing, as well as identifying and resolving existing bugs. I will also be updating the search bar functionality so that it indexes both the summary content and the tiddler titles.

Currently, we are not facing any challenges that require instructor assistance.

  Week 1 – CST – 363 Introduction to Database Systems 1.       Relational database tables and spreadsheets look similar with both having rows and columns. What are some important differences between the two? Some important differences between database tables and spreadsheets are the way data is formatted and how data is stored. In a spreadsheet, every cell can store any type of data like a date, integer, or string. These data types can also have their unique format. In a database, each cell must contain only one data type helping to prevent data mismatch mistakes. In a spreadsheet, the data is stored in each cell. In a database, the data is stored in a row made up of columns. 2.       Installing and configurating a database and learning how to use it is more complicated than just reading and writing data to a file. What are some important reasons that make a database a useful investment of time? Learning how to install and c...

  Week 6 – CST370 – Design and Analysis of Algorithms This week we learned about AVL trees, 2-3 trees, heap, and hashing. An AVL tree is a binary search tree that has a balance factor for each node that is either 0, 1, or -1. This means that the height of a node’s left subtree minus the height of the node’s right subtree must be either 0, 1, or -1. When inserting a new node into an AVL tree, you must recheck that the balance factor of each node is still within range. If the tree is unbalanced, you must perform either right, left, double right left, or double left right rotations to balance the tree. A 2-3 tree is a tree that can have nodes that are 2-nodes or 3-nodes. A 2-node contains a single key with two children. The left child is less than the key and the right child is more than the key. A 3-node contains two ordered keys and three children. The left child is less than the two keys, the right child is more than the two keys, and the middle child is between both keys. ...

Week 8 – CST – 300 Module 8 OLI – Post-Test This week we had to take the post-test which was a culmination of what we have learned throughout the course. It started off with opinion questions where you had to choose whether you agreed or disagreed with the statement. I compared my answers to the pre-test answers and, although they are not graded, I believe my answers improved. From the OLI modules, I learned that you must consider everyone’s opinions and to use conflict resolution techniques when there is difference of opinions. When someone is expressing their opinion, you must use active listening and let them know you understood by repeating to them what they told you in your own words. For dealing with conflicts, you must use active listening and then formulate an assertion message to deal with the conflict.   Part 1: Review Other Team’s Final Video Projects Gigabit Goon Squad Public Video – 1.       Is the topic well covered? Yes, I bel...
