Presentation Transcript

  1. Topics 1/25/2011 • Tech analysis and Design Requirements (Grammar, Writing) • Ch. 14: Documentation (Plagirism) • “Say Something:” Abstracts, Introductions • Subsystem Interface Standards • Documentation: Notebooks, Meeting Minutes

  2. Tech Analysis: What its About • Explain your subsystem • Outline requirements of the subsystem with estimates • Explain relevant technologies that could be used to implement your subsystem

  3. Grading Rubric

  4. Subsystem Characterization: Examples • Use of language to convey ideas • Requirements drive the solution, or simple presentation of the solution.

  5. English: Tips • If you’re unsure of a sentence, say it out loud. If you are a native speaker, you have an advantage • Subject Verb Agreement (they are, he is, I am) • Ambiguous “it:” “A switching converter is an integral part of an amplifier. It becomes problematic in the presence of RF interference.” (What is it?)

  6. Documentation: Plagirism • From Plagiarism.org: All of the following are considered plagiarism: • turning in someone else's work as your own • copying words or ideas from someone else without giving credit • failing to put a quotation in quotation marks • giving incorrect information about the source of a quotation • changing words but copying the sentence structure of a source without giving credit • copying so many words or ideas from a source that it makes up the majority of your work, whether you give credit or not (see our section on "fair use" rules)

  7. Documentation: Plagirism From Martin 2004, p. 372 If I Wrote: A microphone is one of a few devices used in audio that can be called a transducer. Generally speaking, a transducer is some device that converts between one kind of energy to another, like from mechanical to electrical energy (Martin 2004). This is considered plagiarism, because I’ve taken what he’s said and copied it almost exactly. Even if I reference it, it is still plagiarism because I have copied it directly: it is a Quotation. There are other options.

  8. Documentation: Plagirism From Martin 2004, p. 372 Option: Paraphrase A microphone is one of several devices known as transducers. The microphone is one of the most common transducers in the realm of audio. Transducers are devices which convert energy between different types of energy, such as from mechanical to electrical (Martin 2004). Option: Block Quote: “A microphone is one of a small number of devices used in audio that can be called a transducer. Generally speaking, a transducer is any device that converts one kind of energy into another (for example, electrical energy into mechanical energy.)” (Martin 2004)

  9. “Say Something” Abstract: a detailed summary of what is contained in the work Abstract 1: In this paper, I will discuss the use of voltage only measurement to locate faults. This approach is extremely useful for locating faults. This works better than many other methods, and uses an advanced signal processing technique to accomplish our goals. In the first section I will introduce my topic, and some of the reasons why we need another fault location method. Next I will explain the theoretical aspects, then I will show the simulation data. Finally I will conclude with real-world data, that shows our method is successful. Abstract 2: A travelling wave approach using voltage-only measurement is used to locate faults to within 1.5% of the line length. Our method is a double-ended approach, and unlike traditional travelling-wave methodologies, it does not rely on expensive GPS-synchronized recordings. For each end of the line, the travelling wave oscillation frequency is determined using Cohen’s class of time-frequency analysis, and using the ratio of these frequencies, the distance to the fault from each recorder is determined. The accuracy of our methodology is validated using an ATP fault model, as well as COMTRADE data from several real-world cases.

  10. “Say Something” • In your work, get right to the point • There is no need to introduce your introductions • Quantitative explanations are more valuable than qualitative: • “The energy required to transmit the signal is very large.” • “The energy required to transmit the signal 5m is 300 mW.” • Pictures are useful because they can convey more information than simply numbers or sentences. • Meeting Minutes: Say Something! Action items, accomplished ideas, agreed upon standards

  11. Interface Standards • Every system can be modeled as a black box, but you must agree on the inputs and outputs (example: Wireless Transmission) • Agree upon standard before you develop the systems

  12. Notebook • Write what you did down • Write down ideas • Don’t worry about sloppiness Keep track of everything you do • Write stuff down even if you don’t think it’s pertinent • Sign and Date your entries • Don’t recopy at the end of the semester: just write things down!
