Final
Research Component
For the research component of the course, you must read the
following papers and submit written reviews by the specified
deadline. Late submissions will not be accepted.
There will be at most two required research readings per class, and
often just one.
Your
evaluations should have the following form:
- Your name.
- Paper title and author(s).
- What problem does the paper address?
- Two (or more) most important new ideas in the paper, and why.
- What is the approach used to solve the problem?
- How does the paper support or otherwise justify its arguments and conclusions?
- Two ways the paper could be improved, and why.
- Two important, open research questions on the topic, and why they matter.
You must submit evaluations as a PDF file. You should upload the
evaluations to the online Catalyst system (URL at the top of this page).
Your evaluation for each reading must be less than one page
long, be single-spaced, use 12pt font, and have at least 1 inch
margins; I expect for most paper evaluations to be approximately 1/2
to 3/4 pages long.
You are welcome to, and in fact encouraged to, discuss the papers with
other students in the class. However, you must write the evaluations on your
own.
Students enrolled in CSE M 590 will be required to present one
of these papers during class. More information will be announced as
the course progresses.
