===== Some Elements for the Methodology and Best Practices ... =====

==== Few advices to write an interesting paper ====

== Questions that must be answered before all ==

  * What is the added value of the paper ? 
  * What is the gain for the reader ?
  * What is the purpose of the paper ?
  * What is the purpose of the reader when he's reading the paper ? 
  * If the reader has to decide something technical thanks to the paper, how the paper can help him ? 

  * Why the reader pay for this paper ? 

** One of the relevant measure is how many saved  time to apprehend a topic thansk to the paper **
  * Example 1 : Introduction to Cloud Computing (one hour of reading for one hour on the web !) : **no gain !**
  * Example 2 : Comparison between technologies for Tagged Objects and the existing solution on the market (one hour of reading for ten hours on the web !): **90 % of saved time!**


== Short is better ==

  * Do you prefer to read a short or a long paper that give you answers ?
  * If the paper is long, you must know why you need to explain more interesting things to the reader !

** The student paper will be 3 or 4 pages long **

==== Some advices about References ====

  * References must be used to shortly introduce interesting ideas, studies and analysis that were explained in the referenced paper

  * Bibliography is better than Webography because published paper are always available. The content of a web site can changed and past release lost. 

  * Don't forget any informations in a reference : title, authors, date, editor, pages, location, url, ISBN, DOI etc. 

  * In case of duplication of figures, the references are not enough. References don't allow to copy something, only to suggest other readings about a topic (Ref :[[https://bucks.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/09/21/when-its-illegal-to-photograph-artwork/|
"When It’s Illegal to Photograph Artwork", Jennifer Saranow Schultz, The New York Times, September 21, 2010 (available 022018)]]. 

  * Quality of references must be guarantee, thanks to :
     * Selection process with reviewer, like for research papers (conferences proceedings and journals) from well-known scientific publishers : IEEE, ACM, Springer Verlag, Elsevier ..
     * Consortiums bringing together major actors of a technical domain like Standards Organization(ETSI, IEEE standards, IETF, W3C, OASIS, UPnP ...) 
     * Sometimes (but be careful) some white papers comming from well-known research and advisory firms, famous companies with an internal Research Department : (Gartner, Inc., Oracle, IBM, etc.)

==== Example of Paper Template ====

  * **Research Paper (for a comparison between research works) **
      * Abstract section  must explain at least what is the topic and the purpose of the paper 
      * Introduction section must explain 
         * why this paper and the context of the topic
         * what is the plan of the paper
      * "Related works" section must give a list of the research that are significant in the topic adressed by the paper  
      * "Discussion" section must clearly define all the characteristics and the used criteria for comparison.
      * "Discussion" section must produce a synthesis array with all the compared solutions in columns and all the characteristics in lines, checked or not.
      * "Conclusion and Perspective" section conclude the discussion with the main ideas of the discussion and what are the hot topics to go ahead. 

  * **Technical Paper ** (for a comparison between technological solutions) 
      * Abstract section  must explain at least what is the topic and the purpose of the paper 
      * Introduction section must explain 
         * why this paper and the context of the topic
         * what is the plan of the paper
      * "Main Characteritics" section must clearly define all the characteristics of a common description of the solutions. 
      *  "Main Characteritics" section must give a list of the technological operationnal solutions, even  of the market.
      * "Discussion" section must produce a synthesis array with all the compared solutions in columns and all the characteristics in lines, checked or not.
      * "Discussion" section may provide some advices on the bast solutions in various use cases and illustrations
      * "Conclusion and Perspective" section conclude the discussion with the main ideas of the discussion and what are the hot topics to go ahead. 






==== Paper Format ====

|||

[[http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/pubform.doc | ACM Doc template]] 

[[http://www.ieee.org/documents/Transmag.doc | IEEE Doc template]]

[[https://www.elsevier.com/__data/promis_misc/FINE_FinalTemplate.doc| Elsevier doc template]]

{{:cours:acmformat.doc|ACM}} is the chosen format.

** Be careful about the format of the bibliography in each of these templates**


===== Choose your own methodology but ... =====

  * Be careful of the quality of the paper you read and you cite 
  * Be careful to give complete references 
  * Be careful to add value in your paper and a personal contribution in the analysis (Don't describe simply a  standard technology  or a research result without analysis for comparing and criticing them. Papers must introduce original idea in the analysis.


===== Agenda for Deliverables =====

== Before 12/22/18 ==

Send an email to tigli@unice.fr with a subject like [PAPER MIT 2018][<Name1>] [Name2>][<RES or ENG *>][<Title of your paper>]  

Don't forget to replace <...> by the corresponding string. 
Ex  : <Name1> may give <Tigli>

(*) Choose Between RES or ENG betweem brackets according of the topic of your paper : a research Paper (RES) or a technoligical Paper (ENG)

== During intermediary Courses with JY Tigli (one hour only) and all the Last one ==

You'll be able to discuss with the lecturer about your work in progress.

== One week after the Last course (exam period)  ==
You must send the paper 

in a email 
with the subject : [FINAL PAPER MIT 2018][<Name1>] [Name2>][<RES or ENG *>][<Title of your paper>]
with a attached zip file that contains :
  * your paper in a ACM doc format. The name of the doc file will be <Name1>_<Name2>_Paper.doc 
  * all the other paper your cite in yours 


==== Example of topics for papers ====
