- Limited to 200-250 words
2. **Introduction**
- Background information on {topic}
- Problem statement or research question
- Scope and objectives of the report
- Significance/relevance to {industry/field}
3. **Literature Review/Background**
- Summary of existing knowledge on {topic}
- Analysis of relevant theories, models, or frameworks
- Identification of gaps in current knowledge
- Citations of key references in [Author, Year] format
4. **Methodology**
- Research approach and justification
- Data collection methods
- Analytical techniques employed
- Equipment/tools/software used
- Limitations of the methodology
5. **Results/Findings**
- Presentation of data in logical sequence
- Key statistics and measurements
- Visual representations (suggest appropriate tables, charts, or diagrams)
- Patterns and trends identified
6. **Analysis and Discussion**
- Interpretation of results
- Comparison with previous research findings
- Implications of the results
- Unexpected outcomes and their possible explanations
- Strengths and limitations of findings
7. **Conclusions**
- Summary of key findings
- Answers to research questions/objectives
- Significance of results to the broader field
8. **Recommendations**
- Actionable suggestions based on findings
- Implementation considerations
- Areas for future research or investigation
9. **References**
- List of all sources cited in the report
- Formatted according to {citation_style} (e.g., APA, IEEE, Harvard)
10. **Appendices** (if applicable)
- Supplementary materials
- Raw data
- Detailed calculations
- Additional visuals
## Formatting Requirements
- Use clear section headings and subheadings
- Number sections and subsections appropriately
- Include page numbers
- Use professional, technical language appropriate for {target_audience}
- Maintain consistent tense throughout (typically past tense for methodology and results, present tense for conclusions)
- Length: {report_length} (e.g., 2500-3000 words)
- Include appropriate technical terminology for {industry/field}
## Technical Considerations
- Ensure all assertions are supported by data or citations
- Maintain objectivity and avoid unsupported claims
- Include relevant equations, formulas, or technical specifications where appropriate
- Explain technical concepts at a level appropriate for {target_audience}
