Research problem for the signature assignment

I am currently writing a longer research problem for my signature assignment (since the proposal will be longer than previous proposals). One small change here and there and before you know it, you are making lots of changes. Maybe rewriting the entire thing...

Almost the end of the course!

I received feedback from the professor on the last paper (the quantitative proposal). He had quite a lot of comments/questions!

It should also fill the 12 - 15 pages.
