A minimal of two research papers on a common topics
need to be studied and surveyed.

Your survey paper should be around 5 double-spaced pages.
Clearly summarize the common problem, the solution strategies and results,

Is it good/bad/so-so?

The exact references should be listed and cited,
and copies of the abstracts of you main sources should be provided
as an appendix to your survey.
