In some assignments you are also asked to reflect on the team's performance and state what learning has been gained, so your conclusions on these aspects can be included here also. Keep these questions in mind when writing your conclusions. What did you learn about working in a team and the design process? What is the achievement and outcome of your design solution? What improvements would you recommend for your design solution? Recommendations may be: keep the design as is, make some modifications to or upgrade the design, or suggest another solution. Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 Example 1 -Conclusions and recommendations- From a fourth year electrical engineering design report In conclusion, our Hamming [7, 11] encoding scheme proved sufficient for the design solution. We successfully transmitted a 3000 character encoded message from one computer to another with no errors. Had the program been run repeatedly, a burst error (or +2 bit error) would have occurred and our design would have failed to reproduce the original message. Therefore, a future design should employ an encoding scheme to account for burst errors as well as multiple data bit errors. If the project constraint that restricted communication from the receiver back to the transmitter was lifted, then alternative encoding schemes could be used. There are several modern encoding schemes such as Automated repeat request (ARQ) which employ a 'handshake' whereby the receiver acknowledges to the transmitter that is has successfully received the codeword. If the receiver suspects that part of its message is corrupt, it can request that the suspect portions be retransmitted. All serial encoding schemes face some upper limit on bit error correction. Even if all data bits can be recovered the redundant bits (parity bits) are usually unprotected. Bi-directional communication is the only way to guarantee 100% accuracy in communications.

Conclusion We believe we have designed a good solution to the design challenge. All clients received the entire message at a rate 33% greater than the set specification. The solution can adaptively change its request rates to combat lower service rates and smaller buffer sizes in the server, effectively minimizing packet loss. In addition it can scale to function on more clients than required in the specifications and has been successfully tested on four computers. While our solution is not perfect, improvements in optimizing performance and fairness between clients could easily be implemented in the future. How the design specification has been met. Present recommendation Example 3- Conclusion - From a third year mining engineering report 7. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS This study has evaluated two material handling systems and their associated ancillary equipment for a pre-stripping operation that has an annual production rate of 21 MBCM. In evaluating the most meritorious system for this particular project with regards to technical, economical, environmental and OHS factors as well as costing analysis, advantages and disadvantages, the fleet consisting of the larger sized material handling equipment proves to be superior over the small fleet.
