The Research Project format definition
Introduction — Define the issue and provide background discussion while building credibility. Find common ground
with your audience and hook them in.
Problem Definition — Don’t start selling yet. Thoroughly and completely identify the business problem your
technology solves. This section should be entirely from the perspective of the target audience.
Definition of Research Purpose –The research purpose is a statement of “why” the study is being conducted, or the goal
of the study. The goal of a study might be to identify or describe a concept or to explain or predict a situation or solution
to a situation that indicates the type of study to be conducted.
Methods Solution — Describe relevant technologies at a high level, including any competing technologies (which you
will rebut later). Support your arguments with tables, charts, and graphics. Quote industry experts as needed to bolster
your positions. You are educating your target audience on the current state of the art, as well as where your solution fits.
- Method one: Download different tools and run tests on the virtual network and include the results in
your report. Make sure to compare the results with the second method and make a recommendation on
which is better. - Method two: You need to write either write a program or script and run tests on the virtual network and
include the results in your report. Make sure to compare the results from the first method in your report. - Method three from articles: The methods section of a research paper is the most important because it
provides both methods and material used in the procedures of the study.
Research methodology — is the specific procedures or techniques used to identify, select, process, and analyze
information about a topic. In a research paper, the methodology section allows the reader to critically evaluate a study’s
overall validity and reliability. The methodology section answers two main questions: How was the data collected or
generated? How was it analyzed?
Research questions
The process of developing your research question follows several steps:
• Choose a broad topic
• Do some preliminary reading to find out about topical debates and issues
• Narrow down a specific niche that you want to focus on
• Identify a practical or theoretical research problem that you will address
When you have a clearly-defined problem, you need to formulate more questions. Think about exactly what you
want to know and how it will contribute to resolving the problem
Case studies usually follow a typical story structure, which means they have a beginning, middle, and end.
Think of them as a “before and after” snapshot of a customer’s business – complete with quotes, statistics, and
images. Example: Baltimore transfers $6 million to pay for ransomware attack; city considers insurance against
hacks: https://www.baltimoresun.com/politics/bs-md-ci-ransomware-expenses-20190828-

Summary — A research summary is a type of paper designed to provide a brief overview of a given study – typically, an
article from a peer-reviewed academic journal.
