The document provides guidance on the scope and proposal for a term paper or project. For the scope, students should choose a relevant topic that can relate to their own work if applicable, and study the problem, available solutions and their quality/shortcomings, and propose new solutions. It takes about two weeks to write a good report. The project can be based on literature review, simulation, or implementation. For the proposal, students must submit a one page document by email including the research area, potential report title, selected literature, and nature of the planned research.
