Today, a top researcher in the field of Computer Science spends over 30 times more time reading than writing. This is important as it reflects that the field of Computing has come a long way in the last 50 years. We have redefined what humans can do but at the same time, this brings in some alarming concerns.
Our research at OpenGenus showed that over 75% of students lack the necessary skills to read a research paper effectively. Over a million papers are published every year and the average quality keeps going down. To save the future of computing, we researched over the years on effective ways to identify and read research papers. We discussed with thousands of conference paper reviewers and came up with this book.
This will take some time to go through the book but think this as an investment for making yourself a key player in the field of computing shortly. Read this with an open mind and you will see the benefits as you take action and put our advice into practice in your daily research.
