Need help with my Computer Science question – I’m studying for my class.
Write a scholarly research report on the following topic :
BIG DATA ANALYTICS
Screenshots of further instructions as per the grading requirement is provided.
Some of the academic journals have been attached.
Instructions :
- Acceptable file formats for submissions include Microsoft Word (doc, docx) or Adobe Acrobat (PDF). No other formats are acceptable.
- The research paper must be at least 3,500 words (10-12 pages) supported by evidence (citations from peer-reviewed sources). There is a reason for page limits. The page limits under and over will result in grade point deduction.
- A minimum of four (4) peer-reviewed journal citations are required.
- No references should be more than 5 years old.
- Formatting should be double-spaced, one-inch boarders, no extra space for headings, no extra white space, no more than two levels of heading, page numbers, front and back matter).
- Extra white space use to enhance page count will negatively affect student grade.
- Only 1 figure, photo or chart will be accepted in the research report.
- Chapter 1 illustrates the document details of the research report and constitutes Background/Introduction, Problem Statement(s), Goal(s), Research Question(s), Relevance and Significance, Barriers and Issues related to topic chosen. Chapter 2 should consist of student paraphrasing the cited research material (i.e. what happened in case study x). Chapter 3 should be the reasoning for doing a basic compare/contrast or advantages/disadvantage of what was stated in Chapter 2 (do not state because the professor said so). Chapter 4 is a complete analysis, synthesis, and evaluation of what was stated in chapter 2. In effect, chapter 3 is a statement of what will be done and chapter 4 is what was done and what the findings were. Again, thus far the writing is objective and must not contain student opinion. Chapter 5 states results, conclusion, and future work recommendations. Here is where student opinion (or any researcher) can state their respective opinion as the student has now “done the work” and are justified in stating results.
- The research paper must only include materials derived solely from peer reviewed journals or peer reviewed conference proceedings. Newspapers, websites (URLs), magazines, technical journals, hearsay, personal opinions, and white papers are NOT acceptable citations.
- All images, tables, figures are to be included in the appendices and IS NOT included in the 15 page requirement. This means appendices are not included in the 15 page requirement.
- Long quotations (i.e. paragraphs) are NOT permitted. Only one quoted short sentence (less than 14 words) is permitted per page.
- Footnotes are NOT permitted.
