1. Project Requirements
Individual project with topics approved by the instructor
Word or LaTeX processed nal report with minimum eight double-spaced pages (in-
cluding tables, graphs, acknowledgement and references but excluding the cover page)
The nal report should include at least the following parts:
{ A cover page with the title of the project, name and student ID, and course
number (STAT 454 or STAT 854)
{ An abstract with no more than 100 words (on page 2, before all the sections)
{ An introduction section to outline the problem(s) to be addressed
{ A main section to give technical details
{ A section on simulation studies, with detailed description on the simulation model
and major results from the simulation
{ A nal section for additional and/or concluding remarks
{ Acknowledgement and references
The preferred program language for simulation is R. All computing codes are required
to be submitted online and the simulation program needs to be repeatable by the TAs
