The Context for Security
CSE M 584 Research Component
If you are enrolled in CSE M 584, then you must also read the following papers
and submit written reviews by the specified deadline. Late submissions will
not be accepted. 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.
TBD: Depending on the size of the course and the number of people
enrolled in CSE M 584, you may also be required to present one of these
papers during class.
More information will be announced after the number of students in CSE M 584
stabilizes (but please ask if you haven't heard by Jan 18).
