Writing a (good) scientific paper

  1. First of all, review your data and identify what is unique and special about your paper. This will now be your focus. Stick to this main focus/finding!
  2. Think through the structure of the paper before you start writing. Only use material that will really contribute to the story.
  3. Structure your paper with lots of subheadings, don’t be shy!
  4. Have you gone through every single sentence in the paper to make sure it is as short as possible (a sentence should be no more than 1–1.5 lines in A4 12 point)? Organise carefully to avoid repetition.
  5. Have you taken every step to make sure the paper is as short as possible (to maintain the focus)? Fewer words are ALWAYS better than more!
  6. Avoid complex phrases and keep to simple words.
  7. Avoid using personal terms such as ‘our’ or ‘we’. Science is supposed to be impersonal and objective.
  8. Use acronyms sparingly and ensure they are properly explained at first use.
  9. Make figure legends full and complete and explain as much as possible (date samples taken, replication, etc.).
  10. Do not make the figure the subject of the sentence!
  11. Discuss your results and end the sentence with the figure/table in brackets. For example ‘the highest concentrations of Zn were in the Yellow river (Fig. 6)’, rather than ‘Figure 6 shows . . .’
  12. Do not repeat in the text long lists of data which you have already presented in the figures and tables. Results and discussion should be a limited summary of the main findings. The data in the figures/tables do not need to be repeated in the text.
  13. Do not use several significant figures without good reason! A value of 7.6 is better than 7.5894! This is particularly true when model estimations are given, because here there will be large uncertainty.
  14. Ensure that the amount of discussion is proportional to the importance of the topic. Do not distract the reader with long discussions on aspects that are trivial compared to the main focus of the paper.
  15. Maintain that narrative thread! You must keep the readers’ attention so that they can follow your story. Don’t run several different stories or mess things up with information that distracts from your storyline. If you try to put too much stuff into a bag, it will break!
  16. Use emphasis carefully. Don’t say ‘this clearly shows’ as that implies certainty and hints at arrogance. Try instead to use ‘this strongly suggests’ or ‘this indicates’ which, whilst revealing your conviction, still leaves a space for uncertainty.
  17. Work hard to squeeze out any ambiguity. Try to make each sentence stand alone and not require the preceding sentence to make sense. Put the paper down and re-read after a week. Does it still make sense?
  18. The conclusions section should be as brief as possible, a paragraph of no more than 1/3 of a page. Don’t re-open the discussion. If permitted, bullet points are very useful.


Giving a presentation

  1. Be sympathetic to your audience! Don’t overestimate the knowledge of your audience or how quickly they can assimilate your information.
  2. Consider your talk as a story and draw your audience to an inescapable conclusion.
  3. Manage the amount of information presented on each slide wisely so that it is easily digestible.
  4. Ensure all material is legible, even from the back of a large hall.
  5. Always strive to help your audience understand by carefully identifying the key findings.
  6. Avoid acronyms as much as possible.
  7. Show honesty and your human side.
  8. Look out at your audience so that no one feels left out, some movement will help you feel relaxed and keep the audience with you.
  9. Practice and ensure you can keep to time.



Time management

  1. Identify which tasks are critical and prioritize them.
  2. Do make a plan and keep it near you, in plain sight.
  3. When working with others, double check that the task is understood by all parties.
  4. Protect yourself from the time vampires!
  5. Keep nurturing scientific relationships.
  6. Check if your character is playing a detrimental role.
  7. Permit yourself breaks.


The basics of doing an experiment

  1. Start with a hypothesis.
  2. Try a preliminary experiment to test the water.
  3. Keep it simple.
  4. Make your sample size as high as possible and consult a statistician early on.
  5. Use appropriate and sufficient controls.
  6. Beware of bias and the ‘eye of faith’.




Lack of confidence and the embarrassment factor

  1. All scientists start by knowing little.
  2. Even the best scientists don’t know everything.
  3. Over-confident scientists can be a menace.
  4. Examples of under confidence include being unwilling to present your work, not letting go of datasets, and restricting your research, lifelong, to a small area.
  5. Be open to your supervisor and/or mentor about support you might need with confidence.
  6. Science requires everyone to accept a need for constant improvement, so don’t take criticism too hard.
  7. Plan baby steps with tasks and presentations that will gradually increase your confidence.
  8. Confidence takes time, so stick with it!


Integrity in science

  1. Without honesty science will fail.
  2. Design your experiments as thoroughly as possible, taking particular care over the controls.
  3. Resist pressure to overlook or ignore awkward data.
  4. Be the first to admit errors or mistakes.
  5. Don’t see things which aren’t there because of the ‘eye of faith’.
  6. Honesty and transparency will highlight your qualities as a good scientist.


How do I find my way?

  1. Start with areas of science you really like, that interest you.
  2. Maybe look for topics which are just starting to receive a lot of interest.
  3. Select the right supervisor for you.
  4. Seize opportunities for independence when you can.
  5. Look for big or worthwhile questions to study, will they pass the ‘so what’ test?
  6. Keep an eye out for applying techniques from other disciplines/areas to your problem.
  7. Consider changing topics as your career develops, to widen your skills and knowledge.




Understanding the hypothesis

  1. A hypothesis is a short falsifiable statement, something you can clearly test.
  2. Do not confuse it with an aim, objective or theory.
  3. Usually, a hypothesis can’t be proved, no matter how many positive examples you generate, but it can receive our provisional support.
  4. A hypothesis can be disproved/falsified! It only needs one counter-example.
  5. Start with as bold and far-reaching a hypothesis as you can. Something that could be really useful if supported by the evidence.
  6. As your initial hypothesis is disproved, refine it with alternatives which are more likely to be supported by the evidence.
  7. Once you have learned how to form a hypothesis, in theory, you could move into any branch of science. It is the key in your pocket!


What characteristics should I have as a scientist and am I that person?

  1. Curiosity
  2. Imagination
  3. Willingness to learn
  4. Able to plan
  5. Meticulous in their work
  6. Persistent
  7. Not afraid of hard work
  8. Able to work alone
  9. Happy to work in a team
  10. Focused
  11. A desire to communicate
  12. Objectivity


What do we mean by science and ‘being a better scientist’?

  1. You should view science as a method or way of thinking to address problems.
  2. You are someone who is willing to propose a hypothesis.
  3. You diligently gather evidence.
  4. You give your support where the greatest weight of evidence lies.
  5. You accept that some uncertainty remains.
  6. You acknowledge that a conclusion is tentative.
  7. You do not cherry pick from the data to argue your cause.

A categorization of optimization problems, based on different criteria

 


Optimization

Optimization is a scientific discipline that deals with the detection of optimal solutions for a problem, among alternatives. The optimality of solutions is based on one or several criteria that are usually problem- and user-dependent. Constraints can be posed by the user or the problem itself, thereby reducing the number of prospective solutions. If a solution fulfills all constraints, it is called a feasible solution.

Among all feasible solutions, the global optimization problem concerns the detection of the optimal one. However, this is not always possible or necessary. Indeed, there are cases where suboptimal solutions are acceptable, depending on their quality compared to the optimal one. This is usually described as local optimization, although the same term has been also used to describe local search in a strict vicinity of the search space.

A maturity model for microservice architecture goals and benefits

A microservice is an independently deployable component of bounded scope that supports interoperability through message-based communication. Microservice architecture is a style of engineering highly automated, evolvable software systems made up of capability-aligned microservices.

From these comments, it is clear that microservice applications share some important characteristics:

  • Small in size
  • Messaging enabled
  • Bounded by contexts
  • Autonomously developed
  • Independently deployable
  • Decentralized
  • Built and released with automated processes


Microservices are ideal for big systems

The common theme among the problems that people were facing was related to size. This is significant because it highlights a particular characteristic of the microservices style—it is designed to solve problems for systems that are big. But
size is a relative measure, and it is difficult to quantify the difference between small, normal, and big. You could of course come up with some way of deciding what constitutes big versus small, perhaps using averages or heuristic measurements, but that would miss the point. What the architects at this gathering were concerned with was not a question of the size of the system. Instead, they were grappling with a situation in which the system was too big. What they identified is that systems that grow in size beyond the boundaries we initially define pose particular problems when it comes to changing them. In other words, new problems arise due to their scale.

Microservice architecture is goal-oriented

Something else we can derive from James’ recollection of the day is the focus on a goal rather than just a solution. Microservice architecture isn’t about identifying a specific collection of practices, rather it’s an acknowledgment that software professionals are trying to solve a similar goal using a particular approach. There may be a set of common characteristics that arise from this style of software development, but the focus is meant to be on solving the initial problem of systems that are too big.

Microservices are focused on replaceability

The revelation that microservices are really about replaceability is the most enlightening aspect of the story. This idea that driving toward replacement of components rather than maintaining existing components get to the very heart of what makes the microservices approach special.

Benefits
  • Agility allows organizations to deliver new products, functions, and features more quickly and pivot more easily if needed.
  • Composability reduces development time and provides a compound benefit through reusability over time.
  • Comprehensibility of the software system simplifies development planning, increases accuracy, and allows new resources to come up to speed more quickly.
  • Independent deployability of components gets new features into production more quickly and provides more flexible options for piloting and prototyping.
  • Organizational alignment of services to teams reduces ramp-up time and encourages teams to build more complex products and features iteratively.
  • Polyglotism permits the use of the right tools for the right task, thus accelerating technology introduction and increasing solution options.
  • Greater efficiency in the software system reduces infrastructure costs and reduces the risk of capacity-related service outages.
  • Independent manageability contributes to improved efficiency, and also reduces the need for scheduled downtime.
  • Replaceability of components reduces the technical debt that can lead to aging, unreliable environments.
  • Stronger resilience and higher availability ensure a good customer experience.
  • Better runtime scalability allows the software system to grow or shrink with the business.
  • Improved testability allows the business to mitigate implementation risks.

Unit-testing an object in isolation and Testing an object with mock objects

 




The Most Beautiful Code I Never Wrote

First, we need to define some terms. What is beautiful? I tried to solve that borrowing a definition from philosophy: esthetic which means the ideal form. But we can expand the concept to functional and non-functional requirements. Functional represents what the software does and non-functional how the software does. Thus, we can define beautiful code as a code that provides a homeostasis between functional and non-functional requirements.

Software Qualities

Mostly external software qualities

Correctness: Adherence to stated objectives, aka requirements or specifications

Robustness: Resilience to incorrect inputs or adverse/unanticipated external conditions (such as the lack of some resource)

Usability: A measure of the effort needed to learn how to use software and to achieve its goals; ease of use

Efficiency: Adequate consumption of resources

Readability: Clarity, understandability by fellow programmers


Mostly internal software qualities

Readability: Clarity, understandability by fellow programmers

Reusability: Ease of reusing the code to solve similar problems, and amount of changes needed to do so—aka adaptability

Testability: The ability to write tests, and how easy it is to do so, that can trigger all relevant program behaviors and observe their effects

Maintainability: Ease of finding and fixing bugs, as well as evolving the software


Special qualities

Thread safety: The ability of a class to work seamlessly in a multithreaded environment

Succinctness: Writing the shortest possible program for a given task

Software qualities classified according to two dichotomies: internal versus external (horizontal axis) and functional versus nonfunctional (vertical axis).

 


Functional and nonfunctional requirements pull software in different directions. It’s your job to find a balance.
