? Ideally, ends with the conclusion that the present work is needed.
? Example:
(para 1) The early algorithms,A and B, sought to solve the requirements X,Y, and, Z by bit-twiddling. However such approaches eventually lead to blah and duh, to differing degrees.
(para 2) C, D, and other also tried to solve the same problem, but failed ...
(para 3) Ultimately, the authors were not attractive enough to solve the problem, so it was left to me.

? It should be a narrative about the field, its logical relatives, the problems it faces, advances and failures, and motivating articles.
Show how the body of work holds together in some philosophical or technological way
Demonstrate mastery of subject matter to establish credentials for paper (often a fatality if done wrong)

Related work ...
? A related work section for your course project is due on 3/22
Should cover 25-50 related works beyond just citation
It should be at least 2 pages long, add figures if necessary and relevant (be legible)
Writing style counts, so use good grammar (get readers)
You need to make some critical assessments about what work is relevant and why.
Assume I know nothing about the project and the area
This should be ready for publication, so it better be perfect and exhaustive
