MSc Computing Student work - University of Northampton

The dissertation is an important element of the MSc courses. The range and nature of the dissertations on MSc Computing  varies, below are some links to blog postings that I hope give a flavour some of the topics MSc students have  investigated:

• Web Analytics
• Analytics enhancements using rankings
• Comparative Statistical Analysis of Multiple Web Analytics Tools
• IT in developing countries
• ADOPTION OF IT IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES: THE CASE OF NEPAL
• Hospital Management in Rural Pakistan
•  Augmented reality
• Development of an Augmented Reality (AR) application for android mobiles
•   Internet Technologies
• HTTP Push in browser based Web Applications
• Generic Google Maps Project
• Interactive TV applied to internet broadcast media
• Tool for web application vulnerability scanning

• Cloud Computing Infrastructure

  
  

One ex-student has turned his dissertation into a book.

The contents are the opinion of the author(s) and not necessarily the view of the University of Northampton.

opinion: Academia.edu

For the second posting on the  academic social media tools, I want to look at Academic.edu.

This was one of the first I started using and still one of my favourite.

Summary

- can post papers, teaching materials, links

- really good for getting Google hits

- the range  disciplines of people who follow your work is actually very diverse. Is often from when you start using it.

- quite well established

-it has analytics features in particular about where someone has googled one of your papers and the keywords used.
