ABSTRACT
This report focuses mainly on what the author has learned and done
during the two months IO in which Division in which Company. A
brief history and the work nature of the company will also be in-
cluded. In addition, an attempt has been made to identify the project
CO
assignment as shown in Chapter 2 and to provide a clear and concise
description of the tasks undertaken. The schedule planned on the
project is depicted in both Figures and Tables, to update readers on
the development process and how the time is being allocated to the
project . . .
The project is namely title which deal with research works on . . . ,
e.g. . . . , which might be useful in developing an application that is
able to ... Thus, it is essential for one to understand the descriptions
and structures of . . . as provided in the literature review section of
this report before going into the development stage of the application.
2O
Moreover, . . . is elaborated with helpful figures and diagrams to aid
readers in their understanding ... A project focus section will also be
included which consists of the author’s idea in constructing an archi-
tecture and the evaluation of the various . . . hardware and software
which serve the purpose of identifying the components that might be
useful in the future development of the application. The differences
between these two types of . . . will also be described in detailed.
O
Finally, the report is concluded with discussion and recommendations
suggested to help improved the future development of the project...

INTRODUCTION
CO
Industrial attachment is an opportune time for students to apply their existing
knowledge and skills that they have gained through several hours of
theoretical and practical training in NTU’s lectures and laboratories into the
industries. Though it is beneficial but relatively insufficient. It serves as an eye
opener for students to realize that a lot of things are done differently in industry
compared to the practices in school. There are no fixed guidelines or steps to
follow or help in completing a project. Due to this reason, students are able to
work independently and produce work at a satisfactory level.
In chapter one, a brief history and the business of the company will be first
discussed then followed by the projects’ objectives and scopes.

not taught in school. For examples, the . . . standard, the proper ways of
conversing and presenting of research materials, the methods of extracting . . .
from research papers and later translating these . . . into software algorithm and
so forth.
All investigations require the evidence of reading. In this chapter, reference
materials and facts are presented so as to provide a strong backup for any
2O
research and analysis made. This chapter also provides an explanation
regarding . . . or limitation issues and the various type of . . . techniques used in
different . . . environments. Lastly, the comparisons between different types of
standards are reviewed.
