CS 601 Paper/Patent/Web Reviews

The exected length of the review depends on the item being reviewed but in general is expected to be 300-500 words. The should NOT just be a simple summary of the paper (mas summary is 200 words in which case the review should be 500-600 words long). (do not just copy the abstract/conclusions). They should be a critical review and should list short comings, missing elements (missing references if you know some), and any general problems you have with the paper. Your review needs to convince me that you really understood the paper and what was good/bad about it.

Your reviews should be posted on on the class review page. Each review posting should list the paper title/url and your name (or names if it is a group) . You may edit your reviews (but I'll know it :-). Copying material from other reviews is strictly forbidden. (I may take the "review" posting stuff off-line until just before class if I think its a problem). You are, however, encouraged to read the other reviews and comment on them.
