THE TITLE
Make your title specific enough to describe the contents of
the paper, but not so technical that only specialists will
understand. The title should be appropriate for the intended
audience.
The title usually describes the subject matter of the article:
Design and Simulation of a Low-Cost Irrigation System
Sometimes a title that summarizes the results is more
effective: Simulation of Low-Cost Irrigation System a Key to
Effective Implementation
Title Keywords: Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation
(Simulation, Modeling, Experimental, etc.)

ABSTRACT
An abstract, or summary, is published together with a research
article, giving the reader a "preview" of what's to come. They
allow other scientists to quickly scan the large scientific
literature, and decide which articles they want to read in
depth. The abstract should be a little less technical than the
article itself.
Your abstract should be one paragraph, of 100-250 words,
which summarizes the purpose, methods, results and
conclusions of the paper.

ABSTRACT
It is not easy to include all this information in just a few words.
Start by writing a summary that includes whatever you think is
important, and then gradually prune it down to size by
removing unnecessary words, while still retaining the
necessary concepts.
Don't use abbreviations or citations in the abstract. It should
be able to stand alone without any footnotes.
Comes with Keywords ( at least 5 technical words utilized )

CHAPTER 1
THE INTRODUCTION
The introduction summarizes the relevant literature so that the
reader will understand why you were interested in the
question you asked. One to four paragraphs should be enough.
End with a sentence explaining the specific question you asked
in this experiment.
The purpose of the introduction is to give a solid background
of the phenomena being studied. It provides information that
will lead into the statement of problem. This information may
include the need to replicate previous studies due to some
shortcomings or to apply previous research to a different
population.

THE INTRODUCTION
In general, the reader should be able to understand the need
for the present study and have concrete understanding of the
researchers theory. The introduction generally covers the
following:

problem to be identified and defined,

technical justification,
advantage of what is being proposed and
presents the value of the project (impact).

THE INTRODUCTION
The introduction may be well presented using the following
sequence:
1.1 Background of the study
Brief latest evolution of the technology describes how the
technology of interest surfaced and its motivational factors of
its development.
Significant impact of the technology describes the
significant impact of the technology in terms of economic,
academic and social impact.

 Challenges of the technology describes the various

challenges posed by the development. It must be noted that
some trade-offs may have been experienced in the utility of
the technology which can be related in the following sequence:
Global scene
National scene
Local scene

 Interventions and initiatives that mitigate challenges

describes

some

prevailing

interventions

and

initiatives

imposed by other scientists to alleviate challenges based on

technology innovations and/or technology-based treatment
which can also be in the following sequence:

Global scene
National scene
Local scene

1.2 Statement of problem this section should recognize and

acknowledge

the

aforementioned

arguments

presented

as

challenges and interventions that can be utilized as motivating

factor

for

some

potent

interventions/solutions

based

on

technology innovations and or other forms of technology-based

treatment.

 Presentation of proposed solution presents that through the

design/ development/implementation and evaluation of the
proposed

project/study,

it

provides

better

solution

and

resolution to stakeholders. The study therefore should seek to

address some prevailing technical issues and or questions with
respect to the design, development, implementation and
evaluation of the proposed technology-based treatment.

 1.3 Objectives of the study (Main & Specific

Objectives)

May be a statement of an outcome of the study in

terms of variables, and
May contains implications for empirical testing

1.4 Significance of the study this is a brief section which

should answer the question: Why is this research needed? This
section should describe the importance of the research for the
furtherance of learning and to the economy. The research should
present compelling arguments and clearly show its significant
contribution/impact to various stakeholders.

1.5 Framework of the study A group of related ideas that

provides guidance to a research project/ endeavor.
Input Process Output Outcome (IPO) Paradigm

 1.6 Scope and limitation of the study describes the

specific

coverage

of

the

study

bearing

the

enabling

technologies involved, general methodology and the project

setting. Other technologies may be mentioned and classified
under the limitation of the study. Relevant information which is
withheld may also be classified under the limitation.
