Possible Research Paper Sections:

Abstract: (Karthik - mic drop)

• Summary of the paper (keep it brief - https://www.scribbr.com/dissertation/abstract/).
• Include a "Keywords" section.
• Base it on the "Automatic Lock-free Parallel Programming..." paper's abstract section that was discussed earlier in the semester during one of the discussion sessions.

Introduction: (Helena - Team leader)

• Present the research topic and problem statement.
• Discuss the purpose and goal of the paper.
• Highlight the novelty of the paper.
• Discuss the paper layout (similar to the "Automatic Lock-free Parallel Programming..." paper).

Preliminary:

• This section will include introducing and discussing ALL of the past research done regarding this topic. (Karthik - mic drop)
• All discussion points (i.e., challenges that are introduced in past work) must be included in this section. (Helena - Team leader)

Experiment: (Pratik - resident comic)

• Discuss the following sections (have them as separate sections and subsections):
  • Experimental Setup: parameters, experimental environment (i.e., programs used), etc.
  • Methodology
  • Experimental Results (i.e., a screenshot of the output)
    • Simulation discussion (Sid - sim(p) )

Discussion (different from conclusion): (Sim(p))

• Provide a Summary (have them as separate subsections):
  • A brief recap of the key results (from simulation)
  • Summary of the main points gathered for swarm behavior.
• What do the results mean?
• Correlation between literature review and your results.
• Include a Section on the Limitations and Challenges

Conclusion (different from discussion and abstract): (Pratik - rc)

• Review the main points - see the conclusion slide (DO NOT replicate the abstract as the conclusion).
• Elaborate on the importance of the work (current applications, etc.)
• Discuss Future Applications

Acknowledgments: (general shit)

• Follow this format: https://www.scribbr.com/dissertation/acknowledgements/
• Include anyone who helped in the process of researching and writing the paper. Include the person's full name along with their title.
• Can include the following:
  • Your profession, supervisor, or teacher
  • Academic staff (e.g., lab assistant) of your school/college
  • Your department, faculty, college, or school
  • Classmates, teammates, co-workers, or colleague

References: (general shit)

• Use this website to generate IEEE citations (Free IEEE Citation Generator [Updated for 2023] (mybib.com)).
