I understand the nature of plagiarism, and I am aware of the Universitys policy on this. I certify that this dissertation reports original work by me during my University project except for the following (adjust according to the circumstances): The technology review in Section 2.5 was largely taken from [17]. The code discussed in Section 3.1 was created by Acme Corporation (www.acmecorp.com/JavaExpert) and was used in accordance with the licence supplied. The code discussed in Section 3.5 was written by my supervisor. The code discussed in Section 4.2 was developed by me during a vacation placement with the collaborating company. In addition, this used ideas I had already developed in my own time.

Appendix
You may have one or more appendices containing detail, bulky or reference material that is relevant though supplementary to the main text: perhaps additional specifications, tables or diagrams that would distract the reader if placed in the main part of the dissertation. Make sure that you place appropriate cross-references in the main text to direct the reader to the relevant appendices. Note that you should not include your program listings as an appendix or appendices. You should submit one copy of such bulky text as a separate item, perhaps on a disk

Difference in formats of Research Paper, Dissertation and Book format

Research paper and dissertation are academic documents presented in support for candidature in a particular degree course. They follow similar layout and organization. A research paper presents the authors opinions. Research paper focuses on individual topic throughout the paper. Dissertation on other hand doesnt necessarily focus on single issue. In most cases, it reviews hypothetical matters presented by different researchers. Using the research collected, the author attempts critically analyze and interpret findings. Research paper shorter than dissertation. A research paper takes few days, a week or two at most. A dissertation on the other hand takes months, perhaps a year or two to complete. In research paper there is no requirements of table of contents but in dissertation table of contents is necessary. A Book is a written or printed work which talks about a particular one single subject with different perspectives. It contains title page, copyrights, and acknowledgements, table of contents, glossary and index. In research paper there is no requirement of glossary and index. In dissertation there is no requirements of glossary and index but contains appendix and list of figures at the end. For dissertation there is no use of trademarks and copyrights.
