Research methodology is the core component of any valid research. This book provides a guide to conducting research within the broad field of computing. This book is a survival manual that contains a detailed research procedure from the perspective of different computing disciplines in place of the commonly written books on general research methodology. The book can equip the readers with an understanding of identifying research problem, problem formulation, extensive literature review (critical and systematic), methodologies, sources of research datasets, computing research tools, trending research areas in computing, academic databases housing computing literature, research ethics in computing, how to overcome potential challenges in a journey to research in computing and provide tips/skills required for writing journal manuscript for publication in high impact journals.
Key Features:
- Practical
- Includes pedagogical features including case studies, end of chapter summaries and pictorial representation of concepts
- Presents research methodology from the perspective of different computing disciplines.
- Presents guide on conducting extensive systematic literature review and problem formulation according to computing guidelines.
- Presents research tools for easing the conduct of research
- Overview of datasets, sources of datasets and data management techniques.
- Presents clear differences among computer science, Information technology, information science, computer engineering, cybersecurity, data science, and software engineering in terms of discipline and research.
