Guidelines for Evaluating Research Articles

The purpose of this assignment is to examine the components of a research article and help you identify guidelines for conducting critical analyses of published works.  The knowledge gained should be applied when completing your research assignments.  As you complete assignments it is a good idea to proof read your work or use the University writing center to help with APA formatting.  Both are great avenues for assistance in minimizing grammatical errors and conducting research.

Please use the attached “Guidelines for Evaluating a Research Article” to answer the below questions.  Write a 5 – 7 page paper on:

  • What is an Information Technology Project?  
  • Identify & explain the major parts of a research paper.
  • Explain the difference(s) between qualitative vs quantitative research methods.
  • Why use Peer Reviewed journals?
  • Why are keywords used during the Literature Review process?
  • Why are project deliverables, limitations & deadlines an important aspect of project development?
  • Why use/apply APA Basic Citation Stiles in YOUR writing assignments/research?
  • Why is Academic Integrity important (see syllabus)?
  • Explain the difference between plagiarism vs self-plagiarism? 

 

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

Use at least five – ten (5 – 10) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources.

Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format.  nclude a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page do not count toward the page count.

Wireless Network,,

  

Quality of Service (QoS) is significant because it allows the user to prioritize tasks completed over a wireless network. When working with wireless networks, you must consider what is important when designing QoS. In this assignment, students will gain experience on how to conduct QoS in a wireless network. Refer to the topic readings, as well as your own additional research on QoS, for successful completion of this assignment. 

All Case Studies

Directions: Refer back to the Design Document. Complete the “QoS Requirements” section. Consider the following:

1. Include a plan for QoS.

· A plan for IP wireless phones.

· Plan for devices accessing applications.

2. Devices connecting to application databases.

· Why are devices connecting to an application database important?

· What kind of problems can be caused by losing the connection to the database?

3. A method to determine the QoS for each of the applications.

· Is there anything needed for different devices/applications vs. IP wireless phones?

Cite your sources. Do not copy. Write in essay format, not in bulleted, numbered, or another list format. 

It is important that you use your own words, that you cite your sources, that you comply with the instructions regarding the length of your post, and that you reply to two classmates in a substantive way (not ‘nice post’ or the like).  Your goal is to help your colleagues write better. Do not use spinbot or other word replacement software. It usually results in nonsense and is not a good way to learn anything. Please do not use attachments unless requested.
