| - | ====== Guidelines ====== | ||
| - | |||
| - | The following is from an e-mail from Onur regarding the project: | ||
| - | |||
| - | Dear 740 students, | ||
| - | |||
| - | As you know, the project reports are due December 18, 11:59pm Eastern | ||
| - | Time. There are *no extensions* to this deadline, as we will need to | ||
| - | turn in the grades soon afterward. | ||
| - | |||
| - | The guidelines for the report writeup are in the project | ||
| - | handout: | ||
| - | http://www.ece.cmu.edu/~ece740/f11/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=wiki:project:project-f11.pdf | ||
| - | |||
| - | Basically, write your report as if you are writing a submission to a | ||
| - | top conference. You need to motivate the problem, describe its | ||
| - | importance, describe related work and its shortcomings, explain the | ||
| - | key ideas of your solution, and describe it in detail in a precise | ||
| - | manner so that the reader (i.e., we) can understand what you are | ||
| - | exactly doing. You should describe your experimental methodology to | ||
| - | evaluate your solution and provide an analysis of your results. | ||
| - | |||
| - | It is very important that your report have all the sections that | ||
| - | comprise a good computer architecture paper: | ||
| - | - Abstract | ||
| - | - Introduction (Problem and Motivation) | ||
| - | - Related Work and its Shortcomings | ||
| - | - Description of the Techniques (designed and evaluated) | ||
| - | - Evaluation Methodology | ||
| - | - Results and Analyses | ||
| - | - Conclusion/Summary | ||
| - | - References | ||
| - | |||
| - | Please incorporate all feedback you received during the poster session | ||
| - | when preparing your report and make your reports as strong and as | ||
| - | clear as possible. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Page limit and format: I am increasing the page limit to 12 pages | ||
| - | double-column, single space, including references. You can add an | ||
| - | appendix that can be as long as you wish, if you wish to provide | ||
| - | supporting data, proofs, explanations, etc. Please use the Latex | ||
| - | template (along with instructions) provided on the 740 project | ||
| - | website: http://www.ece.cmu.edu/~ece740/f11/doku.php?id=wiki:project | ||
| - | |||
| - | A good example of a well-formatted 12-page paper is at: | ||
| - | http://www.ece.cmu.edu/~omutlu/pub/tcm_micro10.pdf | ||
| - | |||
| - | You have read many seminal and recent research papers during the | ||
| - | course of the semester on a very wide variety of research topics, and | ||
| - | by now are familiar with the level of clarity, preciseness, insight, | ||
| - | and strength of evaluation that makes a paper a good research paper. I | ||
| - | expect your reports will reflect similar quality. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Looking forward to your clear and insightful reports. | ||
