Because of the high speeds and compact designs of today’s systems, jitter that used tobe negligible is now very significant, and can prevent a system from working correctly.1Today’s designers need the ability to analyze jitter, trace its root cause(s), and mitigate oreliminate the cause(s).In order to effectively analyze jitter, one must understand its nature, the

which the research question(s) is narrow and specific, the objective in ascoping review is to summarize and synthesize the existing literature without using formal qualityassessment in the inclusion or exclusion criteria [5-8]. That is, the perceived quality of the literaturehas no weight on its appearance in a final scoping review although both types have inclusion andexclusion criteria. ScLRs assist to identify gaps in literature as well as direct researchers towardsspecific questions for a systematic literature review by rapidly mapping the key concepts, sources,and existing evidence [5-6]. Most ScLRs do not have formal appraisal mechanisms (ratings usedto assign merit to determine inclusion or exclusion) for the literature being reported in

However, these factors are all subjective, and depend onthe educator. It is therefore, not surprising that no consensus exists among educators on the mosteffective type of exams1.From students’ perspective, open-book-open-notes exam is preferred to closed book exams2 dueto decreased test anxiety1 that comes with the former. Most students believe that take-homeexam, cheat-sheets, and open-book-open-notes exams help to increase exam scores and decreasetest anxiety1. Some students also complain that take home exams are time consuming, due to thenature of exam questions. Take home exams
