Sitting in a lab meeting the other day someone said "literature surveys are kind of a black art", and proceeded to discuss sort of how to go about doing one, from taking an interesting paper, following its references backwards to a seminal paper and then following citations forward from the seminal paper to current work.
I have yet to start a survey for class, but I do have one or two papers that I think are interesting, topic-wise. Does anyone have any tips or processes they use for doing literature searches/surveys?
