Arjen Rouvoet


Date: Wed, February 05, 2020
Time: 12:00
Room: COLLOQUIUMZAAL 0.E420


Questions that we can discuss:

  • How to approach a new topic? Where to start reading?
  • How does one delimit the scope of related work? How to prevent it becoming a time sink?
  • Why is related work important?
  • When do you research related work?
  • What are your responsibilities as a master student/phd student/paper author?
  • How to make effective use of related work? When is it worth trying to use an existing formalism rather than designing something new?
  • How to write a good related work section? Where does it go in a paper?
  • Should I discuss related work in a talk? If so, how?
