Searching for a supervisor Discuss the possibility Conduct literature review: document every articles read (selected topics will be included in chapter 2) What people have done, problems and limitations of existing approaches, anything that must be done but haven’t been done Examine possibilities to conduct research to solve such problems Looking for a possible conference Write a paper Submit the paper to a conference Write thesis S. Kungpisdan

5 Possible National Conferences
The National Computer Science and Engineering Conference (NCSEC2011) November 2011 The Electrical Engineering Conference 2011 December 2011 The 4th National Conference on Information Technology (NCIT2012) Hosted by MUT!!! Around May 2012 The International Joint Conference on Computer Science and Software Engineering 2012 (JCSSE2012) May 2012 The ECTI Conference on Application Research and Development (ECTI-CARD2012) S. Kungpisdan

6 Project Requirements A practical work, an improvement, solving existing problems, finding a new solution to tackle existing problems Implementation or experiment of interesting research topic A case study of a real-world application No need to write a research paper, but get dirty with technologies Examined by internal committees Demonstration required A bit difficult for PhD study, different focus S. Kungpisdan

7 Project Areas Start from scratch
Involve a great deal of research and programming works A prototype with experimental results needed Combinations or Modifications of open-source tools Able to explain necessity of using open-source tools Modifications and some customizations needed, not only install and go A practical implementation is a MUST!!... Need to have a real system as a case study Document oriented Using off-the-shelf tools for experiment S. Kungpisdan
