Milestone 1: MondoHashMap

The first project component due is the MondoHashMap implementation. The deliverables for this milestone are:

MondoHashMap.java

The main class file for the MondoHashMap implementation.

Other Java source files

Any other supporting code files necessary to compile, load, and use the MondoHashMap module.

API documentation

The handin MUST also include the full, compiled JavaDoc documentation for the MondoHashMap implementation. This documentation MUST include full descriptions of every public or protected method, field, sub-class, enclosed class, or constructor employed by MondoHashMap. This documentation hierarchy MUST be included in a sub-directory named documentation/ within the submission tarball package.

Test cases

The submission tarball MUST include a subdirectory named tests/ that includes all of the test data used to demonstrate the correctness of the hashtable implementation. The test files MAY be JUnit files, shell scripts, or other Java programs.

At the designer's option, this submission MAY also include:

BUGS.TXT

This file documents any known outstanding bugs, missing features, performance problems, or failures to meet specifications of your submission. Note that the penalty for such problems will be smaller if they're fully documented here than if the instructors discover them independently.

README.TXT

This file includes any other notes or documentation necessary to use or understand the submission that are not already included in other documentation.

Performance documentation (optional; extra credit)

The handin submission MAY include a document describing the performance of the hashtable implementation and demonstrating (via empirical experiments) that it meets the quantitative performance goals established in Section 6 of this document. The designer MAY choose any tests that he or she desires to establish the performance of his/her MondoHashMap, but MUST describe all tests and why they lead to the stated conclusions about performance.

This document MUST be named PERFORMANCE.extension, but it MAY be a plain text, HTML, PDF, or PostScript document (with the appropriate extension). It MUST NOT be a Microsoft Word or other nonportable format document.

The submission directory MUST be named lastname_p1m1 and the submission tarball MUST be named lastname_p1m1.tar.gz.
