Your Reader Wants Also to See Your Point

Listen to this interview of Justus Bogner, Assistant Professor, Software and Sustainability Group, Vrije Universiteit, Netherlands. We talk about his coauthored papers Do RESTful API design rules have an impact on the understandability of Web APIs? (EMSE 2023) and RESTRuler: Towards Automatically Identifying Violations of RESTful Design Rules in Web APIs (ICSA 2024). Download this screenshot of the ICSA paper. In the screenshot, you see blue highlighting that matches content portrayed by Figure 1 as it's presented in the running text. There is definitely a lot to see, but even more that the writing goes into describing and explaining. For that reason, Justus and his coauthors have chosen to do that work using both figure and text. It is the interaction here between the two that makes their study design palpable and visual — a huge help to the reader trying to appreciate just how they have arrived at these three RQs!
