Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

3.1.1 Introduction to Processing

Course subject(s) 3. Processing

Time estimation: 20 min.

All information you find and use needs to be processed one way or the other. To use the publications you find, you have to consider how you want to use them: to read them yourself, to share them with others, and/or to generate a literature list. 

Sometimes you will only use the publications later, for example a paper you found at the beginning that you will need again during your argumentation. For later use, its important that you can still find them and that you know what these publications are about. Saving a literature list and adding tags and ratings will help you with this. 

Using the relevant publications in your report has some rules. Avoid plagiarism by listing the source of every citation, every paraphrase and every image or photograph that you copy, and make sure you have a complete and correct literature list.
