Assignment 1: Research Report Proposal
Assignments one and six of this course are closely related. The 6th assignment involves writing a research report (more specifically, a literature review) on a topic related to web data management. To help you start, this first assignment is meant to develop a proposal before you write the research report itself.
This means that for the first assignment you choose a research topic (a non-exhaustive list of possible topics is given at the bottom of this page) and do some preliminary investigation of the topic. In Assignment 6 you then write the actual research report on the topic selected in Assignment 1.
Your Research Proposal is a PDF document of at most three pages in which you indicate:
For both Assignment 1 and 6, you are required to submit a single PDF file by the due date. For Assignment 1, it is suggested that you use LaTeX to produce the PDF; for Assignment 6, it is requiredthat you use LaTeX. The software is freely available for both Windows and Linux.
Here is a LaTeX template for Assignment 1; here is a LaTeX template for Assignment 6; and here is aexample BibTex references file for use with paper_template.tex.
Listen to the digital audio recordings of the first two lectures to hear more information about these assignments. Please note that some information in older recordings may be out of date.
Here is one example of a Research Proposal. For privacy reasons I am not able to give the mark that this submission received, but it was generally good.
Here are 4 examples of Research Reports submitted by students of this course in the past. For privacy reasons I am not able to give the marks that these submissions received. Suffice it to say that the examples here were generally very good, with room for improvements in several areas.
Note that you may treat these examples as any other (in this case formally unpublished) resource: you may cite the paper as a Technical Report. The BibTex entry would look like this:
@TECHREPORT{LM06,author = "Lasse Motroen",}
title = "Developing Web Applications using OOHDM and RoR",
institution = "University of Southern Queensland",
month = "November",
year = "2006",
note = "CSC8417 Assignment 3, examined by Dr S. Dekeyser",
The following is a non-exhaustive list of possible topics for your research report. This list may grow during the first few weeks of the semester.
Remember that you may also suggest a topicyourself. However, it must be accepted by the examiner/lecturer of the course, and cover a research issue on which several academic (or, to a lesser extent, industry) articles or papers have been written. The topic must be relevant to Data Management and/or Web Technology.
