Project Proposal

Project Proposal

Due: Oct 31, 2015

The project of CPSC601.13 is a research work and it needs 1-2 pages proposal. In general any “research” related to the subjects of the course is acceptable. You are also allowed to work and re-implement recent graphics and visualization papers with the followings guidelines:

• Use the papers that employ the techniques are covered in the course
• Emphasize on computational aspects rather than applications
• Critique the computational methods which have been used in the paper
• Change and tweak the methods for improvements

A typical structure for the proposal is:

• Title
• Abstract: Briefly describe what, why and how.
• Introduction: Problem Statement and Literature Review
• Goals and Objectives: What will the project accomplish?
• Methodology: How will you investigate the problem? What will you do and how will you do?
• Programming environment: what programming environment will be used? Platform? Special library, GTK?
• Expected Results: What do you expect to find out?
• Works Cited: What sources(paper, books,..) were used?
