Every computing or information student ends up with a huge mountain to climb – that final-year research project. Now, there’s no need to worry, because with this book guardian angels are at hand in the form of four brilliant academics who guide students through the process. The book provides them with all the tools necessary to successfully complete a final year research project. Based on an approach that has been tried and tested on over 500 projects, it offers a simple step-by-step guide to the key processes involved.
