Researchers must read papers for several reasons: to review them for a conference or a class, to keep current in theit field. or for a literature survey of a new field. For many years I have used a simple approach to efficiently read papers. This paper describes the three-pass' approach and its use in doing a literature survey
Three-Pass Method
Literature Survey
The three-pass approach to conducting a literature survey Involves using an academic search engine like Google Scholar or CiteSeer to find recent papers in the area of interest. Here's a summary of the steps involved

instead of starting at the beginning and plowing your way to the end. Each pass accomplishes specific goals and builds upon the previous pass: The first pass gives you a general idea about the paper. The second pass lets you grasp the paper’s content, but not its details. The third pass helps you understand the paper in depth.
THIRD PASS
- Virtual Re-implementation - Identify Assumptions and Hidden Failings - Note Ideas for Future Work
SECOND PASS
- Greater Care, Ignore Details like Proofs - Focus on Figures, Diagrams, and Illustrations - Mark Relevant Unread References
FIRST PASS
Title, Abstract, Introduction Section and Sub-section Headings - Conclusions - Answer 5 Cs: - Category - Context - Correctness - Contributions - Clarity
