The book takes readers through the full cycle of research until the point of submission and evaluation. The book begins by providing postgraduate research students with the foundational concepts and techniques to simplify the complexities associated with choosing topics in CS,  IS,  and CY research domains. The authors furnish readers with fundamentals that facilitate active quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods research enquiries. The content offers important perspectives on how to think about deepening research in CS, IS and CY, noting that these subjects can be studied from computational sciences, engineering sciences, health sciences, social sciences, or interdisciplinary perspectives. This unique and contemporary book aims to benefit researchers, graduate students and engineers in the fields of computer science, information systems and cybersecurity, in addition to other engineering and technology disciplines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(73, 73, 73) !important; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;\" data-ogsc=\"rgb(73, 73, 73)\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-ogsc=\"\" data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\"\u003eUche M.
