Assignment: Research Paper on DNA Computing
The research should include speculation on where the state-of-the-art will be in the near future for one of the following technologies. The paper should include a description of the state-of-the-art in your technology, a discussion of where the sources that you read believe the technology is heading in the near future, and a discussion of how this technology will affect the choices you would make if you were making purchase recommendations for a client. Although there is room for personal opinion in your paper, you must justify your conclusions. You should narrow your research to some specific technical aspects related to the subject.
Details on the Individual Research Paper:
A. Length and Style: The body of an analytic research paper should be at least 10 pages in length and typed using the APA Guide. Student projects distill fundamental issues, discuss the various available solutions, discuss the benefits and limitations of the available solutions, and provide a new solution and justification. Student papers must state a thesis, and based on the research, attempt to prove or disprove that thesis. An adequate literature search will include a few books and journal articles (or other relevant documents). A search of Internet documentation is required. Students should develop a conclusion which synthesizes the literature in such a way as to demonstrate new knowledge.
B. Evaluation Criteria and Feedback: The litmus test of a good research project is: "Does my research project provide the professor with new insight on my topic?" Feedback for the paper will be provided along with the final grade.
C. Standards for Papers: Effective managers and leaders are also effective communicators. Written communication is an important element of the total communication process. The Graduate School recognizes and expects exemplary writing to be the norm for course work. All individual and group papers must demonstrate graduate-level writing ability and comply with the format requirements of the Publications Manual of the American Psychological Association 7th edition. Careful attention should be given to source citations, a proper listing of references, and the presentation of tables and graphs. Format and graphics, however, are not always transmitted well over the Internet: there are dozens of ways in which hardware, software, and networks may be incompatible. A student may mail an additional copy of his/ her research paper to the professor by Postal Service when graphics present a problem.
