  1. Seminar „Ausgewählte Beiträgezum Software Engineering“Part II: Outline/Paper/LaTeXChristopher OezbekFreie Universität Berlin, Institut für Informatikhttp://www.inf.fu-berlin.de/inst/ag-se/ Christopher Oezbek, oezbek@inf.fu-berlin.de1

  2. Review Bibtex • Share your experiences! • What worked, what didn't? • Where was progress easy and where was it hard? • Which tips were useful and which useless? • What would you do differently? • How much time did you invest? • Experiences with the Peer-Review? • Comments in general? Christopher Oezbek, oezbek@inf.fu-berlin.de2

  3. What's on now... • We have searched literature and found a lot of diverse information. • Different views and authors • Different opinions and origins • This was the expansive phase. • Now it's time to collapse this again: • We can not/do not want to present 20 papers in 1 hour. • What are the key-points that you want to present? • => We need to come up with an outline. Christopher Oezbek, oezbek@inf.fu-berlin.de3

  4. Outline I • You are going to write a scientific paper, not a novel: • Keep to the facts • Be precise and logically sound • Watch for understandability and a clear train of thought • Imagine you are writing a book and keep asking the question: "What could I ask somebody who has used my text as preparation?" Christopher Oezbek, oezbek@inf.fu-berlin.de4

  5. Outline II • Introduction - Open the topic, place it inside the context of the seminar, motivation • Fundamentals / Definitions - Explains requirements that are necessary for understanding. • - n. Main aspects to be discussed • = n+1. Conclusion, criticism, look-ahead (i.e. where to do research), review of used papers. Christopher Oezbek, oezbek@inf.fu-berlin.de5

  6. A good paper has... • Good structure • Clear train of thought • Good understandability • Good readability • Clean Layout • Illustrating Examples and Pictures Christopher Oezbek, oezbek@inf.fu-berlin.de6

  7. Plagiarism • If you quote passages from other publications, then you need to mark them using quotes and a link into your reference section. • Same holds for ideas (even if you paraphrase them). • If you copy text from other authors without citing them, you risk losing your reputation as a scientist (and your certificate in this seminar). Christopher Oezbek, oezbek@inf.fu-berlin.de7

  8. Caveats • Beware: You are responsible for your paper (and not LaTeX, me or your peers)! • Don't forget the basics: • Ask somebody to read through your paper and slides. • Run a spell-checker. • Don't use inprecise words: "maybe", "possibly" • Don't leave important sentences without justification: "Linux has achieved wide recognition in industry and academia. Therefore..." • Don't forget references to images and tables. Christopher Oezbek, oezbek@inf.fu-berlin.de8

  9. LaTeX - Why? • We want to use LaTeX for all the documents produced. This has several reasons: • LaTeX is the standard for scientific documents. • You should have come in contact with this system so that you can contrast it to What You See Is What You Get solutions like Word. • It is easy to enforce a unified look and feel for a set of documents produced by different authors (that makes my job easier and ensures that you don't cheat by twisting the page format). Christopher Oezbek, oezbek@inf.fu-berlin.de9

  10. LaTeX - How? • What you should do (Windows instructions): • Install Miktex - A windows distribution for LaTeX. • Install TeXnicCenter - A powerful editor for LaTeX sources. • Get the template LaTeX files from the Paper-Template.zip. • It contains a little demonstration LaTeX file that has a lot of the important features that you will need to write your paper. • The Not So Short Introduction to LaTeX2 • Lyx - Is an editor for LaTeX that is kind of a hybrid between LaTeX and Word. Lyx tries to display what it thinks LaTeX will produce, but uses LaTeX in the background. It works mainly on Linux. Christopher Oezbek, oezbek@inf.fu-berlin.de10

  11. Assignment (II) • Create an outline for your topic. • Make an appointment with me before the next session (17.01.05). • We will discuss the outline. • Be prepared to present your vision of what you would like to talk about and what is going to appear in your paper. • Fill gaps in your conceptual understanding and find rationals/papers for missing logical links. Christopher Oezbek, oezbek@inf.fu-berlin.de11

  12. References • Markus Kalb, 2004. Anforderungen und Tipps. • Hinweise zur Bearbeitung eines Seminarthemas (RWTH Aachen) Christopher Oezbek, oezbek@inf.fu-berlin.de12
