Questions To Ask Yourself

1. What are my tasks?
2. What work does each task need to do?
3. What, if anything, does each task depend upon? That is: what does each task have to wait for before it may proceed?

Code To Implement

class:	CakePipeline.java
methods:	mixBakeAndIceCakes
package:	pipeline.cake.studio
source folder:	student/src/main/java

method: public static IcedCake[] mixBakeAndIceCakes(Mixer mixer, Baker baker, Icer icer, int cakeCount) (parallel implementation required)

Testing Your Solution

Visualization

class:	CakePipelineVizApp.java	VIZ
package:	pipeline.cake.viz
source folder:	student/src//java

Correctness

class:	CakePipelineTestSuite.java
package:	pipeline.cake.studio
source folder:	testing/src/test/java

When you are passing the tests and your visualization looks good, demo it to an instructor.
