The report should be understandable to your classmates. It should have sufficient detail to enable the examiners to assess the validity of the approaches used and the results obtained.

  1. Introduction could contain the following. (i) Brief statement of the problem, (ii) importance/novelty of the problem, (iii) related literature - how others have addressed this or similar problems and the relevant results they obtained, (iv) scope of the project

If you do not cite reference in such cases, you will be regarded to have plagiarized/stolen the material. This could lead to punitive action.
