I am looking in to doing my Honors in Games Technology and i was wondering in this degree that covers such a broad spectrum, what would be a good topic to research. Preferably something that hasn't been done to death, but involving maybe procedural methods and something that isn't based on computer graphics (because that has been done to...
What topic or idea would you suggest for an MS Computer Science thesis? ...
Hello I read alot of research related to computer vision and recently came across a paper which had some technology in it which I thought could make a killer iphone application. So my question is, assuming they haven't patented their method, is there any thing illegal (or wrong) with building an application based on someone else's rese...

There are a couple of questions on Stackoverflow on whether there is any research or studies into what is the best coding convention/style. That's not what this question is about. This question is about whether there are any studies that research whether there are any advantages, productivity gains or other positive side effects to hav...
Hello, I am wondering if it is possible/if any research has been done/any existing programs available to recognize multiple faces in an image and classify them according to gender and approximate age. Technology etc. is not of main importance here as long as it can be done. ...
What are useful strategies to adopt when you or the project does not have a clear idea of what the final (if any) product is going to be? Let us take "research" to mean an exploration into an area where many things are not known or implemented and where a formal set of deliverables cannot be specified at the start of the project. This i...
I am looking for research papers, case scenarios etc that explain or show why less code is easier to maintain, debug, etc. Possibly how choice of programming language can affect it etc. I have no idea how to find this information. Googling something like "research programming less code" yield tons of results and the first few pages doesn...
I have learned that Lua.NET was sponsored by Microsoft Research. How can one contact them and ask for sponsorship for research? Has anyone any experience in it? ...
With BlackBerry OS version 5.0 coming up, Which is the highest BlackBerry OS version should I target my code so that I cover the maximum devices that are available in the market? To put it in other words, if I write code based on OS version 4.x I would be able to cover the devices including up to version 5.0, then what is the highest mi...
I've recently become aware of a free-for-research brain-computer interface system, BCI2000. What I'm interested in is if anyone has worked before on writing or using software that relates in some way to this field of activity, and if you could give me any indications as to where I could find some kind of affordable data acquisition hardw...
I am having difficulties doing this program. It's transportation method using intuitive approach. you will first create two inputs that will describe how many rows and columns will the user wish to have. and then, after clicking a submit button, a desired number of rows and columns will appear. then the user will input the number of valu...
A well known company is promoting Cloud Computing research in my university, I would like to know where I can find good and trustworthy documentation about research in this subject. ...
I'm giving a presentation on refactoring Python. I'd like to put in a couple of slides giving statistics to show that refactoring is a good thing. I've been searching the ACM digital library, but it's a bit like looking for a needle in a haystack. Does anyone know of any statistics on the subject of refactoring in regards to productiv...
Bounty is for the name of a software package for generating tables and running experiments with particular parameters. That is it! I am running experiments on computer programs with a number of variables whose effect I am measuring. For each run, I record the time, the precision and the recall. Are there any frameworks that exist that...
Just curious. I know, in general, this is very subjective and can vary from person to person, but anyway - did anyone do some scientific research in this field? ...
I am a undergraduate student in Computer Science and wants to pursue a PhD. Since I don't have a good GPA, I've heard that I need to get some research experience to enhance the chance of getting admission. However, Due to personal reasons, I'm taking an year off school to go to Substitute Military Service. Because of the nature of the J...
In terms of actual low level atomic instructions and memory fences (I assume they're used), how do you implement STM? The part that's mysterious to me is that given some arbitrary chunk of code, you need a way to go back afterward and determine if the values used in each step were valid. How do you do that, and how do you do it efficient...
I am currently reading for a BSc. in Software Development, and the time has come for me to start thinking about a topic for my thesis. I have recently started learning C by myself and I now wish to base my dissertation on something that involves low level development. This is because I wish to get very familiar with low level fundament...
