CS Research Methods
2022 Semester 2
Assignment 2 (45%)
Task 1: Literature Review
Prepare a report (around 10 pages) containing a critical review of the previous research you have found related to your research topic. The report should include around 15-20 properly referenced conference or journal articles and/or books and highlight the gaps you identified in the literature. Organize the review around the questions or claims
relevant to your research rather than just listing the papers you have read.
Task 2: Outline of research approach
Prepare a report (around 3 pages) that identifies a research problem (linked to your literature review above) and highlights the contributions you intend to make in your research area. Outline how you plan to evaluate your contributions. You should provide enough details to show that you have thought about how to convince readers. For example, if you intend to measure performance, you should describe what aspects will be measured, and what you will compare the measurements to.
Note:
You must follow the overall structure and guidelines given in class in week 3. You will be given the opportunity to receive feedback in week 10 during class.
