The project proposal is a one or two page description of the problem you
intend to solve, a survey of related work on the problem, and your plan for
finding a solution.

The problem description should be as complete and formal as possible. You
will then be able to re-use this portion of the proposal in the final project
report.

The survey of related work should not just cover the papers I suggested. It
should also cover other papers you found yourself in the library or with
Google scholar. The main purpose of the survey is to show how much progress
other people have made on the problem so it is clear what remains to be done.

The plan for finding a solution should be as detailed and can contain a
partial solution. Hopefully, you can make a good start this weekend so there
is some hope of finishing the project in the coming week.
