  - To be defined by each group

=== Minute: ===
In this session teachers told us the performance of the tool DokuWiki.
==== 3rd Meeting (2011-03-17) ====
=== Agenda: ===
  - Distrac water by injection compressed air and water [[idea|]] Good or no?
  - How can shape and volume change the tank price? Do two teams have the same tank?
  - Actually, How should we start?

=== Minute: ===
Teachers have told us how to organize our project, in black box. We have presented some questions for teachers about the type of humidifier, and the price of some components.

==== 4th Meeting (2011-03-24) ====

=== Agenda: ===

  - What better way to do the electrical control: PLC or microcontroller? What would be the best way?
  - Java programming .... TOMCAT interconnection with notepad++!
  - Where can we buy(Fridge compressor,fittings etc)?
  - Choose the best idea for the construction of the humidifier!
  - How to solve the problems of the two ideas?
**First idea**
  - Water gets dirty with algae? 
  - Mineral deposits in the nozzle due to water quality? 
**Second idea**
  - Using distilled water will prevent scale formation? 
  - And what about algae growth? 
  - What about microorganisms and fungii growth?
 


=== Minute: ===

Discussion about the difference between microcontrollers and PLCs.
Some advice for choosing the best idea.
