Research Paper Writer

Overview

This skill guides the creation of formal academic research papers that meet publication standards for IEEE and ACM conferences/journals. It ensures proper structure, formatting, academic writing style, and comprehensive coverage of research topics.

Workflow

1. Understanding the Research Topic

When asked to write a research paper:

1. **Clarify the topic and scope** with the user:

• What is the main research question or contribution?
• What is the target audience (conference, journal, general academic)?
• What is the desired length (page count or word count)?
• Are there specific sections required?
• What formatting standard to use (IEEE or ACM)?

2. **Gather context** if needed:

• Review any provided research materials, data, or references
• Understand the domain and technical background
• Identify key related work or existing research to reference

2. Paper Structure

Follow this standard academic paper structure:

1. Title and Abstract
   - Concise title reflecting the main contribution
   - Abstract: 150-250 words summarizing purpose, methods, results, conclusions

2. Introduction
   - Motivation and problem statement
   - Research gap and significance
   - Main contributions (typically 3-5 bullet points)
   - Paper organization paragraph

3. Related Work / Background
   - Literature review of relevant research
   - Comparison with existing approaches
   - Positioning of current work

4. Methodology / Approach / System Design
   - Detailed description of proposed method/system
   - Architecture diagrams if applicable
   - Algorithms or procedures
   - Design decisions and rationale

5. Implementation (if applicable)
   - Technical details
   - Tools and technologies used
   - Challenges and solutions

6. Evaluation / Experiments / Results
   - Experimental setup
   - Datasets or test scenarios
   - Performance metrics
   - Results presentation (tables, graphs)
   - Analysis and interpretation

7. Discussion
   - Implications of results
   - Limitations and threats to validity
   - Lessons learned

8. Conclusion and Future Work
   - Summary of contributions
   - Impact and significance
   - Future research directions

9. References
   - Comprehensive bibliography in proper citation format

3. Academic Writing Style

Apply these writing conventions from scholarly research:

**Tone and Voice:**

• Formal, objective, and precise language
• Third-person perspective (avoid "I" or "we" unless describing specific contributions)
• Present tense for established facts, past tense for specific studies
• Clear, direct statements without unnecessary complexity

**Technical Precision:**

• Define all acronyms on first use: "Context-Aware Systems (C-AS)"
• Use domain-specific terminology correctly and consistently
• Quantify claims with specific metrics or evidence
• Avoid vague terms like "very", "many", "significant" without data

**Argumentation:**

• State claims clearly, then support with evidence
• Use logical progression: motivation → problem → solution → validation
• Compare and contrast with related work explicitly
• Address limitations and counterarguments

**Section-Specific Guidelines:**

*Abstract:*

• First sentence: broad context and motivation
• Second/third: specific problem and gap
• Middle: approach and methodology
• End: key results and contributions
• Self-contained (readable without the full paper)

*Introduction:*

• Start with real-world motivation or compelling problem
• Build from general to specific (inverted pyramid)
• End with clear contribution list and paper roadmap
• Use examples to illustrate the problem

*Related Work:*

• Group related work by theme or approach
• Compare explicitly: "Unlike [X] which focuses on Y, our approach..."
• Identify gaps: "However, these approaches do not address..."
• Position your work clearly

*Results:*

• Present data clearly in tables/figures
• Describe trends and patterns objectively
• Compare with baselines quantitatively
• Acknowledge unexpected or negative results

4. Formatting Guidelines

**IEEE Format (default):**

• Page size: A4 (210mm × 297mm)
• Margins: Top 19mm, Bottom 43mm, Left/Right 14.32mm
• Two-column layout with 4.22mm column separation
• Font: Times New Roman throughout
• Title: 24pt bold
• Author names: 11pt
• Section headings: 10pt bold, numbered (1., 1.1, 1.1.1)
• Body text: 10pt
• Figure/Table captions: 8pt
• Line spacing: Single
• Paragraph: No indentation, 3pt spacing between paragraphs
• Figures: Centered, with captions below
• Tables: Centered, with captions above

**ACM Format (alternative):**

• Standard ACM conference proceedings format
• Single-column abstract, two-column body
• Include CCS Concepts and Keywords sections after abstract
• Use ACM reference format for citations

5. Citations and References

**In-text citations:**

• Use numbered citations: "Recent work [1, 2] has shown..."
• Multiple citations in chronological order: [3, 7, 12]
• Reference specific sections: "As demonstrated in [5, Section 3]..."

**Reference formatting (IEEE style):**

[1] A. Author, B. Author, and C. Author, "Title of paper," in Proc. Conference Name, Year, pp. 123-456.
[2] D. Author, "Title of journal article," Journal Name, vol. X, no. Y, pp. 123-456, Month Year.
[3] E. Author, Book Title, Edition. City: Publisher, Year.

**Reference list requirements:**

• Alphabetically ordered by first author's last name (or numbered by citation order)
• Include DOI or URL when available
• Minimum 15-20 references for a full paper
• Mix of recent (last 5 years) and foundational works
