Cs301_Research_Instructions.docxResearch Paper Instructions
To prepare you for writing technical documents in the future, you will write your paper in the current IEEE or ACM format for two column, single spaced, 9-pt or 10-pt time new romans font, fully justified text (this will become clear as you read papers). Your paper should be approximately 6 pages. A research paper basically contains the following sections. There are variations depending on what needs to be reported:
Abstact: should be 100-200 words describing what you did and results
1. Introduction : Background information and a longer summary of what you did and results you got. You should briefly mention how you technique differs from previous work in this section
2. Related work: Provide summaries of previous work related to your optimization including references to the papers (include cross-reference to paper listed in your references section). In this section you should clearly distinguish your work from previous work, giving details on how your work is different and how your work improves and/or extends previous methods. Be careful not to trash anyone else’s work in this section. For one, it is tacky and two, the authors you are trashing are likely reviewing your paper
3. Methodology : Describe what you did, how you did it, how it works, etc. Give architectural diagrams, charts and figures where necessary.
4. Experiment Results : Include a subsection describing your experimental setup followed by (a) subsection(s) presenting your results. Be concise and use graphs to show improvements. Tables may also be used but a graph showing improvements conveys your results much easier than a table that must be read and interpreted. Make sure you analyse your results!!! Just showing some charts and reciting numbers does not provide any insights on what you have learned from these results. Provide an in depth analysis on what the results mean and trends that are revealed.
5. Conclusions and Future Work : Summarize work and results. Give any future work you may be planning or future work that could be done
6. Acknowledgments: Acknowledge any person that helped with your research that is not listed as an author. Also acknowledge any funding sources that funded this work (of course you will not have that for this paper, just future reference).
7. References : List of papers cited throughout your paper
