Type of research, taxonomy

Literature Survey: Is the process of analyzing, summarizing, organizing, and presenting novel conclusions from the results of technical review of large number of recently published scholarly articles. The results of the literature survey can contribute to the body of knowledge when peer-reviewed and published as survey articles

Literature Review: Is the process of technically and critically reviewing published papers to extract technical and scientific metadata from the presented contents. The metadata are usually used during literature survey to technically compare different but relevant works and draw conclusions on weaknesses and strengths of the works.

Second View: The second view over literature survey and review is that in survey, researchers usually utilize the author-provided contents available in the published works to qualitatively analyze and compare them with other related works. While in the former, you should not perform qualitative analysis. Rather it should be quantitative meaning that every research work under study should be implemented and benchmarked under certain criteria. The results of this benchmarking study can be used to compare them together and criticize or appreciate the works.

Some possible example structures of SURVERY PAPER

1. Increasingly complexity or scale: There may be a spectrum of solutions and you might organize them by complexity or scale.

2. Static vs. dynamic: Many field organize by static techniques, dynamic techniques, and even hybrid.

3. Partitioning the design space: Lots of systems are made up of components, so maybe for an compiler paper, you could divide by the classic scanner, parser, symbol table, code generator and optimizer.

4. Major techniques in a field: For example, in fault tolerance, you see fail stop vs. fail forward, or logging vs. hot-backup. In concurrency control, there is a natural divide between optimistic vs. pessimistic techniques.

5. Historical: sometimes the course of development of a field has a clear linear nature and is intrinsically interesting in itself. This is an over-used techniques in many cases where it really doesn't add understanding.
