2020-05-29Reproducible research based on open-access papersBoud Roukema-0/+5
Publishing a paper on reproducible research without making it easy for readers to read the references would defeat the point. Of course we have to make some compromises with some journals' reluctance to shift towards the free world, but to satisfy scientific ethics, we should at least provide clickable URLs to the references, preferably to the ArXiv version if available [1], and also to the DOI, again, preferably to an open-access version of the URL if available. I was not able to fully get this done in the .bst file, so there's an sed/tr hack done to the .bbl file in `reproduce/analysis/make/paper.mk` to tidy up commas and spaces. This commit also reverts some of the hacks in the Akhlaghi IAU Symposium `tex/src/references.tex` entry, to match the improved .bst file, `tex/src/IEEEtran_openaccess.bst`, provided here with a different name to the original, in order to satisfy the LaTeX licence.

2020-05-29Added top-make.mk as a listing for demonstration, minor editsMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+2
To help show the simplicity of 'top-make.mk', it was included as a listing. I also went over some of Boud's corrections and made small edits. In particular: - The '\label' and '\ref' to a section were removed. I done this after inspecting some of their recent papers and noticing that they generally have a simple flow, without such redirections. - In the part about the RDA adoption grant, I moved the "from the researcher perspective" to the end. Because Austin+2017 is mainly focused on data-center management, not the researcher's. They do touch upon researcher solutions that can help data-base managers, but not directly the researchers. In effect with this grant, they acknowledged that our researcher-focused solution confirms with their criteria for data-base management.
2020-05-22Re-write of the paper to fit in ~6000 words and IEEE formatMohammad Akhlaghi-5/+32
Following the fact that the DSJ editor decided that this paper doesn't fit into their scope, we decided to submit it to IEEE's Computing in Science and Engineering (CiSE). So with this commit the text was re-written to fit into their style and word-count limitations.
2020-05-02First implementation of style in IEEEtran styleMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+27
The paper is no longer using LuaLaTeX, but raw LaTeX (that saves a DVI), it is so much faster! Initially I had used LuaLaTeX to use special fonts to resemble the CODATA Data Science Journal, but all that overhead is no longer necessary. Therefore I also removed the MANY extra LaTeX packages we were importing. The paper builds and is able to construct one of its images (the git-branching figure) with only 7 packages beyond the minimal TeX/LaTeX installation. Also in terms of processing it is so much faster. The text is just temporary now, and mainly just a place holder. With the next commit, I'll fill it with proper text.
