title: Citing Jena | ||
--- | ||
|
||
[comment]: <> (https://lists.apache.org/thread/jl8npmty96j1gkflmlpx5c0kcfdjr3f6) | ||
|
||
The name of the project is “Apache Jena”. That should appear as the first | ||
use in a paper and in a reference. After that "Jena" can be used. | ||
It is also a [trademark](https://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/#books) | ||
of the Apache Software Foundation. This is also the industry practice. | ||
|
||
The reference should indicate the website <https://jena.apache.org/> | ||
(`https` is preferable). If relevant to reproducibility, or discussing | ||
performance, the release version number **MUST** also be included. The date | ||
of access would also be helpful to the reader. | ||
|
||
You can use names such as “TDB” and “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. | ||
|
||
The first paper citing Jena is [Jena: implementing the semantic web recommendations](https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/1013367.1013381). | ||
That only covers the API and its implementation. Some parts of the system | ||
mentioned in that paper have been dropped a long time ago (e.g. the “RDB” | ||
system). The paper is also prior to the move to under the Apache Software | ||
Foundation. It is also good to acknowledge Brian McBride, who started the | ||
project. | ||
|
||
Here is an example of what a citation may look like: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
Apache Software Foundation, 2021. Apache Jena, Available at: https://jena.apache.org/. | ||
