报告内容摘要：

This talk consists of two parts: Part-1 is about the research methodology.  The key idea is about how to balance among “Learn”, “Think”, “Do”, and “Write”.  Part-2 is the case study about what is a good paper writing.  This talk is for my personal view only to trigger further discussion about research.
