Term Paper


The final term paper is due Monday, December 2, by 5 pm via a hardcopy submitted to my office in Rm. 203 CSB or to the CS main office in 201, CSB. The paper should be about 10 pages excluding the title page, double-spaced using a 10 to 12 point size for the font. The topic for your paper is based on one of your two presentations by default. A good style guide is A Style Manual for Technical Communications.

Recall that you need to address social or ethical issues of computing in your term paper if you haven't done so in previous presentations (worth 5% of the final grade). Some useful resources or pointers on the web include:

Computers and Society page at Northeastern University;

Ethics and Law on the Electronic Frontier page at MIT ; and

Computing, Ethics, and Social Responsibility page at River College .
