its a thesis proposal on computer science will submit to ( computer and information school ) The research proposal should be around 2,000 words in length and should contain the following elements: (1)Title of proposed thesis (2)Background to the research topic – it must show why the topic area is interesting and how it is of theoretical and practical significance. It also need to demonstrate what has already been published in this field. (3)Specific aims and (4) objectives – set out what contribution to knowledge this study will make: this could be based on identifying current gaps, areas of contention in the field or new empirical findings. The aim of the project should be clearly stated and should include focused and specific steps (objectives) required to address the aim. (5)Methods of research proposed, and (6) a plan and timetable. The proposal should show an understanding of why and how the chosen methodology will be used. If the proposed plan includes collecting of empirical data, a detailed justification of proposed data collection methods, sampling strategy and methods of analysis should be provided. The proposed plan should be ambitious but feasible to be completed within three years. The proposal should show some awareness of the ethical issues surrounding the proposed research.
