The main tex file for a thesis should be <name of repository>.tex (see also Git/Structure for the canonical naming scheme). E. E.g., the bachelor thesis of user xyz can be found in a repository named xyz-bt in the Theses project of our Bitbutcket GitLab system, in a file named xyz-bt.tex. If there is a talk to "defend" the thesis (Bachelor-Kolloquium, Disputation), the talk should also be included in this repository, and should be named <name of repository>-talk.tex (e.g. xyz-bt-talk.tex). In case your thesis should be made available on-line, the same names should be used, e.g., xyz.pdf.

The Bibliography

Proper bibliographies in LaTeX are built using bibtex, which allows you to store information about publications in so-called bib files with identifiers that you can use to reference them from your main LaTeX document. In a desperate attempt to keep everything neat and tidy, we have a central bib Git repository which contains bib files we use and occasionally add to:

  • cau-rt.bib: The main database which contains publications we reference, but have not written ourselves.
  • pub-rts.bib: The database containing our own publications.
  • rts-arbeiten.bib: The database containing the theses produced by our students. Yes, we actually do reference those from time to time.

The recommended workflow is to clone that repository locally and tell bibtex that it can find bibliography databases there (google for BIBINPUTS). If you belong to our group's staff, feel free to add to the databases if you're missing a reference. If you are a student, the recommendation is that you collect the items you would add in a separate bib file in your thesis directory and merge those into cau-rt.bib at the end of your tenure.

Publishing the thesis on-line

If your advisor has agreed that your thesis should be made available on-line, and you have signed your consent, then you can publish this as follows. Say your thesis is xyz-bt.pdf. ("bt" for Bachelor theses, "mt" for Master theses, "diss" for dissertations.) To upload this, use the command

scp xyz-bt.pdf biblio@…:/home/biblio/public_html/downloads/theses

If you don't have the right permissions to do this, ask your advisor or the System Administrator to publish this for you.

Then, check that your thesis is indeed available under the URL

 http://rtsys.informatik.uni-kiel.de/~biblio/downloads/theses/xyz-bt.pdf

Note: The name of this file should follow the canonical naming scheme used in subversion (Subversion/Structure ), even if your thesis is for some reason not in the subversion system.

Source Code

Von Ihnen im Laufe der Arbeit entwickelte Software (oder Hardware-Beschreibungen) sind Teil Ihrer Arbeit. Dies bedeutet: es sollte eine Übersicht über die Software in geeigneter Form gegeben werden, z.B. in Form von Klassendiagrammen mit Erläuterungen.
