From the site's front page, access \"IBM Research\" (it changes from year to year, but it is under the \"About IBM\" tab at the bottom of the page). Choose three projects from the list and describe what the projects are and what resources they require. Can any of the projects that you selected be described as research collaborations? Why? Can any of the projects that you selected be described as academic collaborations? Why? Go back to the IBM front page, find \"Investor Relations\" at the bottom of the page.
