the paper

form = perspective
content = area of interest

the question is how to reconcile

form and content

perspectives

review/background -- sketch perspectives, history, viewpoints
case study -- analyse assumptions, gather empirical data, and explain!
technical analysis -- technology-oriented, work out the details
formal study -- clarify in a formal manner, conceptualize and formalize
tutorial -- explain for the laymen, but do it very good

areas of interest

multimedia authoring -- methods, tools, projects
digital convergence -- media, platforms, networking
standards -- motivations, proposals, technologies
information retrieval -- applications, techniques, architecture

form vs content
