Hard Copy: Proof of Work
I have been out for a week for the reason that I encountered family problem and haven't done the hard copy for my proposal... I could not do the docu properly because of the depression caused by the problem that arised.
I go home in my hometown and faced the confrontation with the relatives of my mother. It was a hard time and make havoc in my mind... until now, I have the aftershocked of the happenings... but that's too personal and I'm unable to post it here in the blog site... maybe, later if its not that destructive to me... (hope you get what I mean folks).
So, today, I am doing the drafting of the proposal documentation and checking for corrections and additional info...the hard docu would be my proof that I did my job as student and researcher... hmmm...
I'll be passing it to the instructor for consultation and more corrections... hope it's satisfactory for my professor... he's the man of the research subject, you know... if he doesn't like the content, he would do some 'drawings' in your paper. Ouch! that would hurt me for sure... but I would thank him still... hehehe
God bless to me and to my fellow newly baptized researchers! :]

Am I Late for my Research Proposal?
Its my dead line tomorrow in accordance with my gantt chart/time frame, but I newly composed my research work and budget plan; in which I am hesitant also about it. ummm, I don't think It is the appropriate work and budget plan format. Uhmmm, I don't know. I do my work and budget plan because that's how I understand it... I hope my work is satisfactory to the viewers...
My budget plan, its quite a big amount but i am only considering the real situation i got into. Besides it is only a proposal and changes to the amount of budget would also be possible.
Uhmm, (wag sana sila magalit kung medyo malaki mga amount.)
I hope, i could cope with the requirements of this research subject. Good luck to me and to my fella researchers...God bless us all!

What to expect?
I can't expplain the confusion i feel in making the proposal for my research. Who will help me in case i have questions. aside from using the net for querries and our subject's forum, no one guide me jud...
VOIP is broad and new and... and... and... hayyy... About the proposal, I am blind what is the structure of a Work plan and budget plan, that's why i cant make any of them... hahayy
People are you knowledgeable of VOIP? Can someone help me there? HELP!!!!
Can do it still... am not losing hope! hehehe
The Expected Research Output
The expected output to be generated in the research would be precise information about the issues of VOIP identified in the research particularly in the integrity issues, vulnerability and security measures.
The output would also be an assessment on the level of awareness of the community with VOIP technology and services.
The issues in VOIP are a continuous process and are under study and research. The output information would be set as additional information with the existing information of VOIP and its issues.
The output information would be beneficial for students enrolled with IT, and to the educators for additional information. The consumers and future users of VOIP would benefit to the information generated for their awareness and advance security preparations.
The output would also be beneficial to other and future researchers for review, references and as the baseline information for related topic.The output would be appreciated by organizations related to VOIP in the local and if successfully in the national.
The output would be accessed by any individual; male and female. The individual can be a professional or student searching for information about VOIP, its services and issues.

Thoughts to ponder
No one, yes, someone who would guide me aside from sir RSG, no one (knowledgeable about research) helps me. So, difficult.... hahayyy...
Thanks to search engines, these online information database really is a great help! haha. They've been my best guide and buddy in my research proposal. Such a helper...
My topic, about VOIP. So new in the business industry. Not yet widely expose what it is, but yet widely in use. Users just not aware about it. They're using VOIP but not aware of it. I've observe the advertisement of GLOBE. The new 24ever advertisement, I think that product use VOIP. Phone-to-PC internet connectivity? hmmm? I think so... SO NEW!
So, I think that I will really have difficulties in this research of mine. But to the people close to me, Please do help and I badly need your guide and knowledge! hehehe
To my classmates, please comment to my research update thread if you have info or readings about my topic. it will be highly appreciated. Your names will be mention in my acknowledgment! hahaha...
Kidding aside, Let's look to the bright side. Let's pursue this research, and will gain knowledge...and additional infos...
good luck to my fellow researchers!
Analytical Framework
For more understandable illustration, please consider the figure 2 below:
Figure 2 shows the independent and dependent variables identified in the study. The box on the left identified the independent variables which were the VOIP service factors. The box on the right identified the variables dependent on the factors identified.
