Citing computer programs #96

Closed Melissa37 closed 7 years ago

Melissa37 commented 9 years ago

Hi there

Reviewing our wonky references, have come up with a number of computer programs that have been referenced in weird and wonderful ways, and are pretty hard to track down as a result of that. Does anyone have an guidance on what they do?

An example from our archive below:

`

Swofford DL 2003 PAUP*. Phylogenetic analysis using Parsimony (*and other methods). Version 4 Sinauer Associatesm Sunderland, Massachusetts `

There's a fair amount of discussion of software citation in this Code as a Research Object thread.

An example for this software would be this XML, but it could do with more detail, still (which operating system, etc):

<element-citation publication-type="software">
  <person-group person-group-type="author">
    <name><surname>Pinheiro</surname><given-names>J</given-names></name>
    <name><surname>Bates</surname><given-names>D</given-names></name>
    <name><surname>DebRoy</surname><given-names>S</given-names></name>
    <name><surname>Sarkar</surname><given-names>D</given-names></name>
    <collab>R Core Team</collab>
  </person-group>
  <source>nlme: linear and nonlinear mixed effects models</source>
  <edition designator="3.1-89">R package version 3.1-89</edition>
  <uri>http://cran.r-project.org/package=nlme</uri>
  <year iso-8601-date="2008">2008</year>
</element-citation>
