总共有十二份作业。一开始的作业主要着重在课堂中所涵盖的数学模型与概念，并包含使用MatLab®.解题的内容。后半期的作业会更深入利用MatLab®.，执行课堂中所指定的研究论文中的模型.
There will be a total of twelve assignments. Initial homework assignments will focus on mathematical modeling and concepts covered in class, including some work in MATLAB®. Later assignments (Model Implementation Assignments) will consist of more involved work in MATLAB®, implementing models described in assigned papers from the literature.

指导方针
Guidelines

1. 要充分解释并且提出辅助资料证明作业的答案，譬如可以运用图表、讨论及／或者方程式推演的方法，会根据问题的内容不同而有差异。记得要把所有的图表确实的照前面所讲过的方式标示好。
   Solutions should be explained and supported (e.g. by plots, discussions, and/or derivations, depending on the problem). Remember to properly label all plots as discussed in the previous section.
   
   
2. 对于要用到MATLAB®,的作业，要电邮一份可执行的拷贝档给助教。文件的名称标示如下：
   For assignments using MATLAB®, email an executable copy of your code to the TAs. Please name all your files according to the following convention:
   
   作业程式文件：yourusername_HW#.m（即cookb_1.m）
   HW set code: yourusername_HW#.m (e.g., cookb_1.m)
   
   功能性的m-files：yourusername_fxnname.m（即cookb_dydt.m）
   All function m-files: yourusername_fxnname.m (e.g., cookb_dydt.m)
   
   （可以任意命名你自己的功能性m-file）
   (Note that you can name your function m-files however you like)
   
   
3. 一般作业要打字（模型推演以及方程式等，或许要手写注明）
   Homework should be typed (model derivations, formulas, etc. may be written in).
