title: Supplementary Materials of the Tutorial: "Promotion of Open Science in Requirements Engineering - Leveraging the Open Research Knowledge Graph for FAIR Scientific Information"

description: Summary

This collection contains all the supplementary materials of the tutorial titled "Promotion of Open Science in Requirements Engineering: Leveraging the Open Research Knowledge Graph for FAIR Scientific Information", accepted at the 32nd IEEE International Requirements Engineering Conference 2024.

The materials complement the tutorial sessions and provide participants with resources to enhance their understanding and application of open science principles in the field of Requirements Engineering (RE) by leveraging the Open Research Knowledge Graph (ORKG) for FAIR scientific information. These materials contain all the presentation slides and exercise materials so that everyone can repeat the theoretical presentations independently and carry out the practical exercises themselves at any time.

2.1 SciKGTeX Materials




Folder
Description


SciKGTeX_Example


The folder contains an example publication and all required SciKGTeX files for annotating the scientific information.

Files:



example.tex : LaTeX file of the example publication.

scikgtex.lua : Required LaTeX package file for using SciKGTeX.

scikgtex.sty : Required LaTeX package file for using SciKGTeX.

project.zip : Zip file containing all above files for uploading as a project in Overleaf.


Remark: SciKGTeX is constantly being further developed. For the latest version of the required files, please refer to the corresponding GitHub project.



SciKGTeX_Solution

Files:



example.pdf : PDF with annotations embedded into the PDF's XMP metadata.

example.tex : LaTeX file of the example publication with annotations.

output.xmp_metadata.xml : XMP file generated by SciKGTeX to check the annotations created.

scikgtex.lua : Required LaTeX package file for using SciKGTeX.

scikgtex.sty : Required LaTeX package file for using SciKGTeX.

project.zip : Zip file containing all above files for uploading as a project in Overleaf.


Remark: SciKGTeX is constantly being further developed. For the latest version of the required files, please refer to the corresponding GitHub project.





2.2 ORKG Materials




Folder
Description


ORKG_Exemplary_Publications


The folder contains 20 PDF files with short summaries of scientific findings on empirical research practices from 20 different publications of the IEEE International Requirements Engineering Conference. The participants have received these PDFs to enter them in the ORKG and then create an ORKG Comparison.

Remark: We have provided the short summaries instead of the full publications to simplify the extraction process due to time constraints.



ORKG_Exemplary_Comparison


The folder contains a created ORKG comparison as a PDF and PNG file, consisting of 4 exemplary publications that were described with the ORKG template provided for the tutorial.



ORKG_Template


The folder contains an overview of the ORKG template used in the tutorial as a PNG file and an N3 file of its RDF structure.
