How to Write a Paper in a Weekend (By Prof. Pete Carr)

本文主要是视频中的ppt，介绍了论文写作的一个大致流程。

Preliminaries

• Review and Renew Your Literature Search
• Determine Who Your Audience Is.
  • What kind of paper is it-research, review, tutorial.
  • What journal is it intended for.
  • Undergraduates, researchers, but always the reviewers.

The Big Picture

• Writing the initial draft is the creative part of the job. Resist the temptation to correct and edit as you go. You job now is the produce a complete first draft.

The "Algorithm"

• Just get started don't procrastinate.
• Create an outline by making a list of all your figures and tables. Put them in order of presentation as they may appear in the results and discussion. Always work from an outline. If you have to stop you can easily pick up the writing later. You have the data so this part is easy.
• Do not write the introduction now. It is the hardest part of the paper to write. Again it could be a waste of time to write it now.
• **Begin with the experimental section. **It is the easiest part to write and getting it done will give you a feeling of progress.
• Now write the results and discussion following the outline.
• Write the conclusions. I like a numbered format.
  • 1......
  • 2......
• And you write the "Abstract" and "Acknowledgements" after the "Conclusions"!
• Produce the references for the paper.

Introduction(视频语录)

Two important things that need to be covered in the introduction.

1. Why was the study done? What is the purpose?
2. You've got to collect the relevant essential background information and put that together in the introduction. You need to give the readers a sufficient background to understand what you did.
