How to go about editing your Review Paper for your MS applications- PART-3

This is the Part-3 to the series How to write a Review Paper for your MS applications. I have already covered Part-1 - How to choose the right topic for your Review Paper for your MS applications and Part- 2 - How to search content for your review paper for your MS applications.

So here I will be continuing by giving you all a direction on how to approach the structure of the review paper once you have gathered required information during your content hunt.First of all, get hold of the format of your paper if the competition/symposium already has mentioned one. Else, IEEE format is recommended to follow. The link to download the IEEE format is here: IEEE format.

Although you can structure your review paper as per your content and ideas, but it must contain the following sections:
1. Abstract: 

This is the first thing that you will see in the format. But this is to be written only after you finish up with a proper structure of your paper, as in, what exactly your paper is going to be about. During the start itself you might have scribbled some points on what you were going to add, so keep that scribbled sheet safe and take it out. Look at all the abstracts from the papers you had referred to and get a hint on the level of professional language you will need to frame your abstract. An abstract should be of around 500-1000 words or below your word limit given to you. Start framing your scribbled ideas into the language in your reference papers. You will be editing this part of your paper a lot as you go further structuring your paper.

2. Introduction: 

It should contain the scope of your research/ review work conducted with justification of why you did it. The justification must be done through facts. It should informally state your results as well.

ReMaterials

Company: ReMaterials
Sector: Waste Management
Founders: Hasit Ganatra (University of Southern California Alumni)

ReMaterials is an Ahmedabad-based startup that has developed an affordable, durable and environmental friendly roofing solution called ModRoof. The panels are made of a new wood-like material that is made entirely out of waste materials like cardboard and agricultural waste. The raw materials are currently sourced locally in Ahmedabad.

The manufacturing process involves a crushing stage, then a mixing stage, then a compression stage, drying stage and waterproofing stage. ReMaterials has designed the roof system in a way that makes it easy to transport, install and maintain. The roof panels can last over 20 years with minimal maintenance, according to the company. Not only is ModRoof durable, it is waterproof and fireproof and has heat insulating properties. Now they have prototyped solar cells integrated into ModRoof panels. Solar ModRoof panels can power LED lights and charge cell phones, adding to the long-term value of ModRoof ownership.
