ABSTRACT
Researchers spend a great deal of time reading research pa-
pers. However, this skill is rarely taught, leading to much
wasted effort. This article outlines a practical and efficient
three-pass method for reading research papers. I also de-
scribe how to use this method to do a literature survey.
