How to cite Jena?

[Jakub Jałowiec <j....@student.uw.edu.pl>]

Hi,
is there any preferred way to cite Apache Jena in a publication, preferably
in BibTeX?

Best regards,
Jakub

Hi Jakub, thank you for asking.

You've done the right thing already.

The name of the project is "Apache Jena".

The first use in a paper, and use in a reference, should be that. Then 
"Jena" can be used. It's a trademark of the Apache Software Foundation 
[1]. This is also the industry practice.

The reference should indicate the website https://jena.apache.org/. 
(https please!). If relevant to, say, reproducibility of results, it'll 
need to include the release version number. The date would be helpful to 
the reader.

It is not "TDB" or "Fuseki" on their own. They are informal names to 
parts of the whole system. They also change over time and versions! You 
could say "Apache Jena Fuseki" for the triplestore but as the components 
function as part of the whole, "Apache Jena" would be accurate.

Hi Jakub,

My suggestion would be to cite it as any website/project. Based on what is
required (if at all) for the references in the Latex template, you could
add all the website details via a *@misc* entry.

Cheers,
Fidan

That only covers the API and it's implementation.

(The SQL database mentioned is the "RDB" system that was dropped a long 
time ago.)

It's also "pre Apache".

It is good to recognize Brian McBride who started the project.

Hi,

I think this is the first paper of jena:

https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/1013367.1013381

there you can get the citation.
