How to do productive research in graduate school
What are the bad practices you should avoid
Your feedback?
CS211/Fall 2003

The content of this presentation
• We take slides and points from many outstanding
researchers: Dave Patterson, Richard Hamming, Craig
Patridge, Nitin Vaidya, and the many references and sources
cited there. They deserve all the credits
• I also share some of my own experiences
• We need your input and feedback too
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Caveats
• Only opinions from some people. Others
may not agree, including your advisors.
• Use advice at your own risk
• I do not necessarily follow the advice all
the time
• This presentation may not follow some
rules it talks about
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
What is Research, Anyway?
• Research is not really about coming up with a nice solution
to a hard (possibly new) problem, to show how smart you
are.
• It is a process:
– identifying a research problem
– Coming up with a nice/new result (including simulating,
implementing, testing your solution)
– Writing your results well
– Presenting your results
– Marketing your work
– Engineering is not science, it is about different tradeoff (whether u
can do things easier, efficient, more convenient, … at acceptable
cost/complexity), precisely true/false is not the main concern
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
A Few EQ Rules
• Motivation: “you are indeed interested in PhD research”
– Think carefully about your career goal when you start your PhD
– NOT: “My family asks me to get a PhD…”, “It is hard to find a job with a MS
degree now…”, “I want to hang around in school a little longer…”
– We can get you interested in something for some time, but not all the time
• Good start: “well begun, half done”
– Work harder during the first two years to settle down in research
– Have a taste of what is good research; not poisoned by the bad taste
– Believe yourself: your mindset has not be “framed” by conventional
approaches yet; you can be innovative since you do not know much
– You have more energy and can have less distraction at this time
• Take the initiative: “you do care about what you are working on”
– Do not be afraid to talk to your advisor or others, and let people know the
negative results/setbacks etc.
» “If u do not talk to these folks, who can u talk to???”
» disconnected communication causes more confusion among people
– Be honest to research and yourself; do not hide the nasty findings. If you do
not understand something, ask; then you will know it.
– The reality of “capture effect”: Each advisor has more students than (s)he can
handle; whoever is more aggressive gets more feedback more output
– Push for the project schedule from your side: call for meetings, set deadlines
for internal drafts, look for places where to publish, etc.
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
EQ Rules (Cont’d)
• Regular life: “manage your time and life properly”
– Shift from “deadline scheduling” to “priority scheduling”
– Evaluate your progress periodically. No one else will tell you
that you are not efficient
– Have a “to-do” list on a daily/weekly/monthly basis
– Keep your most productive time-slot during a day to yourself
» No interruption even by your advisor, full concentration
» Even when the deadline comes
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
How to put yourself into the best position?
• Keep yourself informed and networked: “know what is going on
and talk to people”
– Know the literature on the topic you are working on; not let us tell
you what to read. A quick rule “10+10” for breadth and depth: ten top
systems/network conferences and ten leading groups
– People networking: the best way to be a missionary for your work
» Conference is a best place to talk to people. “Do not spend most time to
polish your slides/talk there!!”
» When people contact you for your work, be responsive. “If you do not
care about your work, who should care?”
» Attend seminars: people present the “meat” and “dark side” of their work
in a talk
• Balance between quality and quantity: “make your record
without controversy”
– Target a top conference each year: show your work quality
– Try at least a couple of small conferences: show your productivity
» Good way to practice writing, independent research, presentation,…
» A nice way to go to scenery places for sightseeing, vacations…
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Selecting a Problem
• Solve a real problem that sb. cares about
• Follow the industry technology trend and try to stay ahead
of it a little
– Bad move: even if technology appears to leave you behind, stand by
your problem
– Bad move: avoid payoffs of less than 20 years
• Working on a new problem is always easier
– People have worked on some problems, e.g., congestion control, for
years. It is debatably harder for you to jump in and make major
contributions
• Select a topic that you are interested for some extended
period of time, not just for a month
• Interdisciplinary topics are always better, they can be very
fruitful
• Running real experiments to discover new problems
• For systems topic, start from yourself: what do you need the
systems to do for you?
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Coming up with a solution
• Do not rush for a solution simply based on the literature or what others tell
you
• Understand the problem better, the solution naturally follows
• Use common sense
– Do not try to simply combine several existing solutions
– Explore new approaches: the alternative/opposite first
– Ask questions based on your intuition
• Keep things simple unless a very good reason not to
– Pick innovation points carefully
– Best results are obvious in retrospect
“Anyone could have thought of that”
• Complexity cost is in longer design, construction, test, and debug
– Fast changing field + delays => less impressive results
– Bad move: best compliment: it is so complicated, I cannot understand
the ideas
• Best solutions are a combination of simplicity and depth
– Keep the solution core simple
– Depth is on second-level issues and fixes
• A relevant issue: How do I know mine is different from others
– READING PAPERS
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
How to read a paper?
Know why you want to read the paper
• To know what’s going on
– title, authors, abstract
– Track a few leading groups/researchers in your area, typically less
than 10 is enough
– Only a few conferences (and journals): sigcomm, mobicom,
infocom, sosp, sigmetrics, mobisys, …
• Papers in your broad research area
– introduction, motivation, solution description, summary,
conclusions
– sometimes reading more details useful, but not always
• Papers that are directly relevant to your work
– read entire paper carefully, and several times
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
What to note
• Authors and research group
– Need to know where to look for a paper on particular topic
• Theme of the solution
– Should be able to go back to the paper if you need more info
• Approach to performance evaluation
• Note any shortcomings
• Be critical. It is easy to say nice words about a work, it is
harder to identify limitations/flaws
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
In the process of a research
project
• Get Periodic Reviews/Feedbacks with Others
–Talk to people and ask what they think
–Give a seminar within your group
periodically to collect feedback
• Explain the results to your friends, see
whether they can grasp your problem and
your solution
–For both technical people and non-technical
people
• Exchange emails, publish technical reports
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Evaluate Quantitatively
• If you can’t be proven wrong, then you can’t prove you’re right
• Report in sufficient detail for others to reproduce results
– can’t convince others if they can’t get same results
• For better or for worse, benchmarks shape a field
• Good ones accelerate progress
– good target for development
• Bad benchmarks hurt progress
– help real users v. help sales?
• Before you run real experiments, do an intuitive analysis
– Math does not need to be fancy, as long as it proves the
point; in fact, best theory starts from scratch, not from some
complex theorem you never heard about
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Marketing
• Publishing papers is not equivalent to marketing
• Missionary work: “Sermons” first, then they read papers
– Selecting problem is key: “Real stuff”
• Ideally, more interest as time passes
• Change minds with believable results
• Dave Patterson’s experience: industry is reluctant to embrace
change
– Howard Aiken, circa 1950:
“The problem in this business isn’t to keep people from stealing
your ideas; its making them steal your ideas!”
– Need 1 bold company (often not no. 1) to take chance and be
successful
• RISC with Sun, RAID with (Compaq, EMC, …)
– Then rest of industry must follow
• Publicize software: when people use your tools, they know your
results
– think about how ns-2 and its wireless extension evolve

How to write a paper

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you

When you have truly exceptional results
– P == NP
– Probably doesn’t matter how you write, people will read
it anyway

Most papers are not that exceptional
 Good writing makes significant difference
 Better to say little clearly, than saying too much
unclearly
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Readability a must
• If the paper is not readable, author has not given writing
sufficient thought
• Two kinds of referees
– If I cannot understand the paper, it is the writer’s fault
– If I cannot understand the paper, I cannot reject it
• Don’t take chances. Write the paper well.
• Badly written papers typically do not get read
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Do not irritate the reader
• Define notation before use
• No one is impressed anymore by Greek symbols
• If you use much notation, make it easy to find
– summarize most notation in one place

Avoid Using Too Many Acronyms
AUTMA ?!
You may know the acronyms well. Do not assume
that the reader does (or cares to)
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Writing a draft
• First read Strunk and White, then follow these steps;
1. 1-page paper outline, with tentative page budget/section
2. Paragraph map
» 1 topic phrase/sentence per paragraph, handdrawn
» figures w. captions
3. (Re)Write draft
» Long captions/figure can contain details ~ Scientific American
» Uses Tables to contain facts that make dreary prose
4. Read aloud, spell check & grammar check
(MS Word; Under Tools, select Grammar, select Options, select
“technical” for writing style vs. “standard”; select Settings and select)
5. Get feedback from friends and critics on draft; go to 3.

CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
How to write a systems paper
• Provide sufficient information to allow people to reproduce
your results
– people may want to reproduce exciting results
– do not assume this won’t happen to your paper
– besides, referees expect the information
• Do not provide wrong information
• Sometimes hard to provide all details in available space
– may be forced to omit some information
– judge what is most essential to the experiments
– cite a tech report for more information
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Discuss related work
• Explain how your work relates to state of the art
• Discuss relevant past work by other people too
• Remember, they may be reviewing your paper.
– Avoid: The scheme presented by FOO performs terribly
– Prefer: The scheme by FOO does not perform as well in
scenario X as it does in scenario Y
• Avoid offending people, unless you must
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Tell them your shortcomings
• If your ideas do not work well in some interesting scenarios,
tell the reader
• People appreciate a balanced presentation
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
How to write weak results
• If results are not that great, come up with better ones
• Do not hide weak results behind bad writing
– Be sure to explain why results are weaker than you expected
• If you must publish: write well, but may have to go to secondbest conference
– Only a few conferences in any area are worth publishing in
– Too many papers in poor conferences bad for your reputation
– Just because a conference is “IEEE” or “ACM” or “International”
does not mean it is any good
• If results not good enough for a decent conference, rethink
your problem/solution
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Miscellaneous
• Read some well-written papers
– award-winning papers from conferences
• Avoid long sentences
• If you have nothing to say, say nothing
– don’t feel obliged to fill up space with useless text
– if you must fill all available space, use more line spacing,
greater margins, bigger font, bigger figures, anything but drivel
CS211/Fall 2003

How to present a poster
• Answer Five Heilmeier Questions
1. What is the problem you are tackling?
2. What is the current state-of-the-art?
3. What is your key make-a-difference concept or technology?
4. What have you already accomplished?
5. What is your plan for success?
• Do opposite of Bad Poster commandments
– Poster tries to catch the eye of person walking by
• 9 page poster might look like

How to present a paper
(at a conference)
Objectives, in decreasing order of importance
• Keep people awake and attentive
– everything has been tried: play fiddle, cartoons, jokes
– in most cases, extreme measures should not be needed
– humor can help
• Get the problem definition across
– people in audience may not be working on your problem

Explain your general approach
most productive use of your time

Dirty details
most people in the audience probably do not care
a typical conference includes 30+ paper presentations,
yours could be the N-th
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
How many slides?
• Depends on personal style
• Rules of thumb
– 1 slides for 1-2 minutes
– Know your pace
• I tend to make more slides than I might need, and skip the
not-so-important ones dynamically
• Anticipate technical questions, and prepare explanatory
slides
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
How to present a paper
• Practice makes perfect (or tolerable)
• May need several trials to fit your talk to available time
» particularly if you are not an experienced speaker

English issue
 Accent may not be easy to understand
 Talk slowly
 Easier said than done
I have a tough time slowing down myself

TCP/IP Protocol Suite
• IP Protocol: Inter-networking protocol
– RFC791
• TCP Protocol: reliable transport protocol
– RFC793
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Why IP
• a number of different network
technologies developed in early 70’s:
ARPAnet, Ethernet, Satnet, PRnet
• different trans. media: copper, radio,
satellite
• different protocol designs, e.g.
• ARPAnet: reliable message delivery
• Ethernet: unreliable packet delivery
• under different administrative control
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Fundamental Goal of IP
• developing an effective technique for
multiplexed utilization of all existing
networks
– no centralized control
– no changes to individual subnets

IP: two basic functions
• a globally unique address for each
reachable interface
• datagram delivery from any host to any
other host(s)
two supporting protocols
• ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol)
• ARP (Address Resolution Protocol)
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Fundamental challenge: How to
scale better
• Original design: two levels of hierarchy,
network, host
• Observed problems:
– class-based address assignment infeasible
– too many networks visible at the top level
• two approaches: subnetting & (CIDR)
supernetting
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Longer-Term Scaling issues
• We've run out of all IPv4 unicast space
– far before theoretical limit of 4 billion hosts, due to
inevitable inefficiency of address block allocation
• Short term patch: NAT boxes
• One long term solution: IP version 6
– expanded addressing capability: 16 bytes
– cleanup of IPv4 design after 15 years of running
experience
– improved support for options/extensions

• State management
• Reliability management
• Flow and Congestion control
• Flow control: Do not flood the receiver’s buffer

TCP Flow and Congestion Control
• Window-based protocol
• Flow control is easy: set the sender’s
window no larger than the advertised
window by the receiver
• 4 algorithms in TCP congestion control
– Control congestion window variable: cwnd
– slow start, congestion avoidance, fast
retransmit and fast recovery, retransmission
upon timeout
• Sender_window=min(adv_win, cwnd)
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Slow Start & Congestion Avoidance
• start conservatively: cwnd <= min(2*SMSS
bytes, 2 segments)
• when cwnd <ssthresh, use slow start:
– increase cwnd exponentially to quickly fill up
the pipe: upon receiving each ACK,
cwnd+=SMSS;
• when cwnd > ssthresh, use congestion
avoidance
– cwnd += SMSS*SMSS/cwnd;
– continue until loss is detected
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Fast Retransmit
• When the 3rd DUP_ACK is received,
ssthresh=max(FlightSize/2, 2*SMSS)
• ReXmit the lost segment, set
cwnd=ssthresh+3*SMSS
• Design questions:
• why FlightSize, not cwnd ?
–FlightSize: data sent but not yet acked
• Why add 3 SMSS to cwnd ?
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Fast Recovery
• For each additional DUP_ACK:
– cwnd+=SMSS; (why ?)
– transmit a new segment if min(cwnd, rwnd)
permits
• When a NEW ACK arrives,
– cwnd=ssthresh; (why ?)
CS211/Fall 2003
9/29
Retransmission Timeout
• Initial design:
– RTT=*old_RTT+ (1-)*New_RTT_sample
– RTO= *RTT;  = 2 for original spec
– variation in RTT: ~1/(1-L); factor 4, for L=50%;
factor 10, for L=80%; load <= 30% for =2.
• RTO improvement
– in addition to mean, also estimate the
deviation of RTT
• Diff=New_RTT_sample - old-RTT;
• Smoothed_RTT=old_RTT+1/8*Diff
• Dev=old_RTT+1/4*(|Diff|-Old_Dev)
– RTO = Smoothed_RTT+4*Dev

Karn’s Algorithm
• how to measure RTT in retransmission
cases?
– take the delay between the first (last)
transmission and final ack?
– do not update SRTT in case of retransmission?
• Karn’s algorithm:
– do not take RTT samples in case of
retransmission
– double the retransmission timer for next
packet, till one can get a RTT sample without
retransmission

Putting all together: RFC2581
• how TCP congestion control works
– Start with slow start for bootstrapping phase:
quickly open up the window
– At ssthresh, switch to congestion avoidance
– When 3rd duplicate ACK is received (indicating
a packet loss), use fast retransmit; if more
than 3 duplicate ACKs, use fast recovery
– Upon retransmission timeout (indicating a
packet loss too): cwnd=1, binary exponential
backoff
