Abstract : The main purpose of this study was to explore and examine the rhetorical structure of Iranian and English computer research articles (RAs) discussions by means of comparing move structures presented in discussion sections of English and Persian computer RAs with the purpose of recognizing rhetorical preferences used by English and Persian authors in this particular area. To this end, 46 research articles written by native English writers and native Persian writers were analyzed based on an eight-move model adopted from Swales' (1990) eight-move structure (EMS) to find conventions or moves of discussion sections. Frequency and Chi-square test were used to examine the difference between two groups of discussion sections. The results of the study demonstrated that Move 1 "Background Information" and Move 2 "Statement of Results" were present at the majority of English RAs and were identified as the most frequently used moves or "Conventional Moves", while only Move 2 "Statement of Results" was identified as the most frequently used move or "Conventional Move" in the Persian corpus. Another result revealed that the majority of RAs discussions across the two corpora opened with Move 1 "Background Information". Finally, a "Cyclical Pattern" was observed in the two corpora. The findings of this study have been intended to help EFL teachers and instructors to write discussion of RAs effectively as well as syllabus designers and test takers..
