Hi,
I have been through some discussion regarding survey paper writing tips and tricks. However, these are very generic. I want to know how to write a survey paper related to computer science topics (e.g., blockchain,.internet of things, so on). I have some following queries regarding the aforementioned concerns.
- How to design the flow of the survey paper?
- What will be the minimum length of the survey paper?
- How to pick up a reference paper and which criteria should be the first concern while selecting it? What is the minimum number of references that should I pick?
- Is it necessary to propose an idea in the paper? If yes then is it necessary to show a performance evaluation of the proposed scheme?
- While writing a survey paper which things should I focus on or care about?
Please share your experience regarding this.
Thanks for your time and input.
Thanks in advance.
