| Abstract: | : | In this talk, I will provide many tips for effectively conveying
your research ideas, summarizing past work, making clear diagrams, showing
experimental results and avoiding common errors in paper-writing. I will
also discuss how to make effective presentations, write a survey paper and
how to decide the venue for submitting the research paper. To illustrate
these tips, examples will be quoted from many nicely (and not so nicely)
written research papers and presentations. These tips will be useful for writing research papers and thesis and making effective technical/research presentations. While some of the points may be specific to the speaker's research area and experience, most points are expected to be useful for any researcher regardless of his/her research area. This talk will be highly useful for both graduate and undergraduate students and early-career researchers. Since the presentation slides will not be shared, any interested person is requested to just attend and pay full attention.
