For students taking the course for graduate credits only (Undergraduates: you don't have to write the paper!) 

Look for a partner for the research paper requirement in this course. Give me both your names and the topic that your group is planning to do for this assignment. The following represents a first draft of topics that you're to choose from. If you wish to study a topic of your own, discuss it with me before the due date for this assignment.

    Microsoft's C#
    XML Schema (especially the integrity constraints portion)
    JSP (Java Server Pages)
    Internet 2
    ??? (Your own topic; Must be related to WWW development; Must be current)

Below are the specifics that pertain to this research paper requirement.

You are to select 2-3 papers (at least two "solid" ones) and get them approved by the instructor. The papers (whether they are published in print or on the web) should provide sufficient details on the topic in order for them to be considered legitimate candidates. (The articles given in your notes are examples of legitimate candidates.)
Your paper should represent a synthesis of the concepts discussed in the papers studied. It should concentrate on analysis and evaluation of the technology rather than simply just describing the technology.
The paper should have between 4-6 single-spaced pages (12 point Times Roman font).
