Update

[dracodraconis]

Finally finished the bulk of my second journal paper. Once I add the introduction and conclusion it can be handed off for editing. Next I have to make changes to the now-edited survey paper, as well as prepare an internal presentation for VIT. Then, I can finally work on paper #3 (mostly done) and paper #4 (partly done, needs a bit more work). Those should take about a week each to finish up. That should be sufficient for Phase I, which I can then pull together into Chapter 2 of my final thesis.
