    Guidance for term paper:


    The students are required to submit term paper in time. The term paper should not merely be
    descriptive, must include the backgrounds, motivation, application and related problems. Term papers will
    be assessed on the basis of ones analytical, logical thinking and comprehension of the subject. Web based
    material should be discouraged.
