 Paper Writing – Related work

Related
work

Your reader Your idea

We adopt the notion of transaction from Brown [1], as modified for distributed
systems by White [2], using the four-phase interpolation algorithm of Green
[3]. Our work differs from White in our advanced revocation protocol, which
deals with the case of priority inversion as described by Yellow [4].
 Paper Writing – Related work

 Problem 1: the reader knows I feel

nothing about the problem yet; stupid
so your (carefully trimmed)
description of various technical
trade offs is absolutely
incomprehensible
 Problem 2: describing
alternative approaches gets
between the reader and your
idea I feel
tired
 Paper Writing – Related work

Fallacy To make my work look good,

I have to make other
people’s work look bad

 Any preprocessing
 Initial setup for processing
 Description of basic model / approache
to be used in main algorithm
 Section 3
 Description of proposed algorithm
 Paper Writing

Failing to give credit to others

can kill your paper
If you imply that an idea is yours, and the referee
knows it is not, then either
 You don’t know that it’s an old idea (bad)
 You do know, but are pretending it’s yours
(very bad)
Paper Writing

 Description of different
parameters/datasets for analysis of results

 Try to explain your points with different

illustrations like figures, diagrams, tables,
equations and algorithms
 Description of your method/technique is
always strong/convincing if backed by
some mathematical model.
 Be focused, accurate and simple
 Practice more and refine your writing skills
Guidelines to Write a Paper

 Maintain continuity and flow of your description

 Learn to explain things in your own words. Don’t
consult other papers for that purpose.
 Once a paragraph is complete, read it again for
any errors/mistakes
 Complete one section and then go to next section
 Avoid repetition of same word again and again
 Figures/tables should be original and clear
 Equation no should be right aligned
 Guidelines to Write a Paper

 Use proper method of citing references, figures and

tables
 Figure/table citation should come before
figure/table
 Fig. 3, Figure 3, Table 2, Section 2

 Give sufficient references. Do refer where ever needed

 Make yourself proficient in technical writing

 Explain things in your own words

 Put yourself in the shoes of reader and go though the

paper
Things to Avoid

Don’t copy sentence or part of

sentence from any other paper
Use quotes if at all you need to write
sentence of someone else
Don’t repeat any sentence or
equation in your paper
Don’t use statements like “I think…”,
“In my Opinion…” etc
 Word Processors
Two most popular word processors
MS word
 WYSIWYG
 Easy to use and learn
 Formatting for lengthy documents
LaTeX
 Excellent formatted output
 Very good cross referencing system for figures, tables
etc.
 Mark-up language based, so more time needed to
learn
 Not WYSIWYG
Visual Structure

 Give strong visual structure to your paper

using
 sections and sub-sections
 bullets
 italics
 laid-out code

 Find out how to draw pictures, and use

them

 Do not make hurry in publication
 Assess the quality of your work properly
 Find out the suitable journal for publication
 Submit the paper
 Wait for decision
How to assess quality of your paper

Scan through literature

Take comments from related

people
Selection of suitable Journal for

Checkout the submission procedure

Don’t bother about the no of pages and
paper format at this stage
Avoid multiple submissions
Avoid publishing journals
Keep record of submitted papers
Review Process

Wait for the decision patiently

Forget about the submitted paper

and start working on next
phase/task
Review Process

Single Blind Review

Reviewers know the authors
Authors do not know the reviewers
Double Blind Review
Reviewers do not know the authors
Authors do not know the reviewers
Listen to Reviewers

Treat every review like gold dust

Be (truly) grateful for criticism as well
as praise

This is really hard

But it’s
really, really, really
important
Listen to Reviewers

 Take it very seriously

 Remember – your paper will be published if
you can fulfil the reviewer comments
 Perform 200% in this phase
 Address each comment properly, even if you
don’t agree with some points
 Re-submit paper with report on what all have
you done for each comment by the reviewers
Listen to Reviewers

 Read every criticism as a positive

suggestion for something you could explain
more clearly
 DO NOT respond “you stupid person, I
meant X”. Fix the paper so that X is
apparent even to the stupidest reader.
 Thank them warmly. They have given up
their time for you.
