Excerpt

With any research project, a successful outcome is dependant firstly on a proper understanding of the problem you are trying to solve. It pays to think long and hard about the way an experiment should be designed, and in a forensic context, the design should emulate as far as possible the real world scenarios likely to be encountered. …
