Completing a Paper

Conducting research is truly not easy. . . one great challenge is the time management. . . even starting from scratch consumes a lot of effort. . . i realized that one factor to complete research work is advance reading . . . although it's boring. . .but you'll realized soon the benefits of reading in advance. . . read published thesis and research from your alumni in school. . .

Method over Methodology

Any process or manner of doing something can be called a method while methodology refers to principles using methods or a study of methods. In a formal definition in wikipedia.org a methodology is defined as "the analysis of the principles of methods, rules, and postulates employed by a discipline" and refering to thinkexist.com, a method is orderly procedure or process.

Methodology as seen, is a term derived from methods.



Review Glance


As I read Mr. Tello's review about Detection and Localization of Network Blackholes , I'm truly getting interested about the topic. In the reference (wikipedia.org) he used, network blackholes refer to places in the network where incoming traffics that silently discarded or dropped, without informing the source that the data did not reach its intended recipient.

The research about network balckholes is truly recent and very interesting. It is a good starting point for development. Maybe algorithms and methods lately developed are not yet sufficient for detection and localizing network blackholes.

The reviewer is right that it is a challenge for researchers on how to create measures regarding network blackholes. This only shows that current technology has still its limitations and holes.




About IT Magazines. . .

For a researcher have chance his/her work be published in popular journals such ACM and IEEE, his/her paper must be a one of a kind. It simple means that the work have great significance (can be, your work is now being used nationally) and have quality of a best research work. I believe, it is not easy for a work be published in top-tier international journals.

According to the ACM's Right and Responsiblities in ACM Publishing, a summited work runs through different components before it is being published, namely; Reviewing, Processing of Accepted Works and Dissemination[1]. This simply shows, that well-knowed international journals tightly screen submitted works before subjecting it to publication.
