Sooo, I'm having a bit of trouble coming up with an idea for a research paper topic for my Data Communications course. I essentially need to write a 6 page paper analyzing a particular technology in relation to its everyday uses and industrial, commercial, and social applications. Topics such as wireless networking, optical networking, internet protocols and applications, new uses of the internet, and uses of mobile computing devices, and other things along those lines. That was a sample list that was provided, but I want to see if anyone has any other ideas of what I could write the report on? I just want to consider all the options I have.
Before anyone cues the 'Do your own work' post, keep in mind that I'm just asking for suggestions on what to write the report on, and not asking anyone to write it for me.
