Research Paper Assignment
As a Research Project, select one of the following research areas: Cloud Computing (Intranet, Extranet, and Internet), Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things (IoT), Robotics, or Medical Technology.
Details
Part 1: Introduction
Background/Introduction
In this section, present enough information about the proposed work such that the reader understands the general context or setting. It is also helpful to include a summary of how the rest of this document is organized.
Problem Statement
In this section, present a concise statement of a research-worthy problem addressed (i.e., why the work should be undertaken - don't say required for the class). Follow the statement of the problem with a well-supported discussion of its scope and nature. The discussion of the problem should include: what the problem is, why it is a problem, how the problem evolved or developed, and the issues and events leading to the problem.
Goal
Next, include a concise definition of the goal of the work (i.e., what the work will accomplish). Aim to define a goal that is measurable.
Research Questions
Research questions are developed to help guide the authors through the literature for a given problem area. What were the open-ended questions asked and why did you find (or not find) them adequate.
Relevance and Significance
Consider the following questions as you read through the article and state how the author(s) supported, or left unsupported the relevance and significance of their research literature:
• Why is there a problem? What groups or individuals are affected?
• How far-ranging is the problem and how great is its impact? What's the benefit of solving the problem?
• What has been tried without success to correct the situation? Why weren't those attempts successful? What are the consequences of not solving the problem?
• How does the goal of your study address the research problem and how will your proposed study offer promise as a resolution to the problem?
• How will your research add to the knowledge base?
• What is the potential for generalization of your results?
• What is the potential for original work?
Barriers and Issues
In these paragraphs, identify how the problem is inherently difficult to solve. How did the solution the author(s) propose address the difficulties?
Part 2: Literature Review
In this section, it is important to clearly identify the major areas on which you will need to focus your research in order to build a solid foundation for your study in the existing body of knowledge. The literature review is the presentation of quality literature in a particular field that serves as the foundation and justification for the research problem, research questions or hypothesis, and methodology. You will develop a more comprehensive review of the literature as part of your research.
Part 3: Approach/Methodology
List the major steps taken to accomplish the goal of your study. Include a preliminary discussion of the methodology and specific research methods you plan to implement.
Part 4: Findings, Analysis, and Summary of Results
Include an objective description and analysis of the findings, results or outcomes of the research. Limit the use of charts, tables, figures to those that are needed to support the narrative. Most of these illustrations can be included as part of the Appendix.
1. The following topics are intended to serve as a guide:
a. Data analysis
b. Findings & discussion
c. Analysis
d. Summary of results & discussion
Part 5: Conclusions
· Conclusions - Clearly state the conclusions of the study based on the analysis performed and results achieved. Indicate by the evidence or logical development the extent to which the specified objectives have been accomplished. If the research has been guided by hypotheses, make a statement as to whether the data supported or rejected these hypotheses. Discuss alternative explanations for the findings, if appropriate. Delineate strengths, weaknesses, and limitations of the study.
· Implications - Discuss the impact of the work on the field of study and its contributions to knowledge and professional practice. Discuss implications for future research.
· Recommendations - Present recommendations for future research or for changes in research methods or theoretical concepts. As appropriate, present recommendations for changes in academic practice, professional practice, or organizational procedures, practices, and behavior.
Format your assignment according to the following formatting requirements:
1. The answer should be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides.
2. The response also includes a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student's name, the course title, and the date. The cover page is not included in the required page length.
3. Also include a reference page. The Citations and references should follow APA format. The reference page is not included in the required page length.
