How to select your publications & who is who in research?: Impact & H factorsDiego López-de-Ipiña González-de-Artaza
This document discusses key aspects of the scientific research process and publishing findings, including:
1) The typical phases of the scientific method such as developing a research question, conducting background research, forming a hypothesis, designing and conducting experiments, analyzing results, and publishing findings.
2) Guidelines for publishing research including selecting appropriate publication venues based on their prestige, impact factor, and indexing in databases. Conferences, journals, books, and dissertation are discussed as common publication types.
3) Metrics for measuring research impact including the number of citations, journal impact factor, and h-index which provides an indicator of productivity and citation impact. Resources for identifying publications and metrics like Web of Science, DBLP, and GoogleThe Case Study Method
The document provides an introduction to the case study method. It discusses that the case study method involves processing the case study thoroughly, preparing a presentation, and presenting the analysis. It emphasizes that simply summarizing the case is not enough and the student must perform a deeper analysis. The document also notes that practicing case studies helps develop lifelong analytical skills useful for business. It encourages students to look for real-world examples to practice their case study skills and analysis.
Project documentation format
The document outlines rules and guidelines for a student project report on green computing. It must be a minimum of 50 pages, follow specific formatting guidelines, and include standard report sections like an introduction, literature review, methodology, findings, discussion, and conclusion. The report must be individually or jointly researched and presented during the examination. A copy of the final report is required to sit for the exam.
Research methodology
The document provides an overview of the research methodology process for science and technology. It defines research and notes that research involves systematically collecting and analyzing data to increase understanding, interpreting data to draw conclusions, and building on past research rather than just restating facts. The document outlines Wallace's model for the research process and discusses key stages including proposing a research topic after reviewing literature, conducting the research, and documenting the work through publications like conference and journal papers. It also provides guidance on components of documentation like the research proposal, thesis, scientific writing format IMRAD, and considerations for publication.
A Guide To Scientific Writing
This document provides guidance on scientific writing, focusing on introductions, methods, results, illustrations, and discussions. It discusses the purpose and components of each section. For introductions, the key points are to provide context for the work and state the research question or hypothesis directly. The methods section should present details in logical order to allow replication. Results should objectively present data and describe figures and tables. Illustrations should concisely communicate findings, and figure legends should explain their significance. The discussion interprets results in light of previous work.

Research Skills I Learned in UIUC from Pi-Cheng Hsiu
- 1. Research Skills I learned in UIUC Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering, National Taiwan University Nov. 6th, 2007 Pi-Cheng Hsiu
- 4. Life of Ra (a Research Area) 05/28/10 – Indranil Gupta
Editor's Notes
- 1. If there have been no publications in research area more than 1-2 years old, it is in the “Young Phase” 2. Pick a paper in the last 1 year published in the research area. Read it. If you think that you could have come up with the core idea in that paper (given all the background etc.), then the research area is in its “Young” phase. 3. Find the latest published paper that you think you could have come up with the idea for. If this paper has been cited by one round of papers (but these citing papers themselves have not been cited), then the research area is in the “Adolescent” phase. 4. Do Step 3 above, and if you find that the citing papers themselves have been cited, and so on, then the research area is at least in the “Middle Age” phase. 5. Pick a paper in the last 1-2 years. If you find that there are only incremental developments in these latest published papers, and the ideas may be innovative but are not yielding large enough performance benefits, then the area is mature. 6. If no one works in the research area, or everyone you talk to thinks negatively about the area (except perhaps the inventors of the area), then the area is dead.
