Group Project

Options on Research Paper:

1. Write a Survey Paper. (each team must read at least 6 papers on the topic)
Use Google Scholar, ACM Portal and DBLP to find papers and follow their reference lists:
scholar.google.com; portal.acm.org; www.informatik.uni-trier.de/~ley/db
Write a survey, encompassing: introduction, problem definition (including motivation and application domain),
summary of techniques developed in each paper, global view of the papers covered, and future work suggestions.

1. Your Own Research.

Proceed in the same manner as for Survey, identify a new research problem in the area and develop your own
solution. Your work will be evaluated for originality and novelty, while in this case the comprehensiveness of survey
becomes secondary.
