"Fit for purpose" principle from customer's viewpoint: Refstyler - case study of a simple novel bibliography style translator
The work consists of two interrelated, yet conceptually different parts. In the first, we introduce the Fit for purpose principle, but, in contrast to the usually elaborated, from the viewpoint of the customer. We also relate the principle to the concept of economy of time (involvement) and give rather broad perspective to this concept, in the context of article publication process, and more specifically to the quoting sources from literature. We continue by reviewing available computational aids in writing bibliography for scientific articles. In the second part of the work, we concentrate on one possible solution to the problems laid out in the first part. As it turns out, there is possible rationale in adopting otherwise seemingly sub-optimal solution (software), taken into account customer's individual cost- benefit analysis. The software developed is lightweight, relatively easy to adapt to specific needs and practically requiring no user engagement prior to use. As presented in the work, it is developed having in mind the specific needs of a niche of customers wanting to avoid repetitive steps in bibliography formatting, but also not willing to spend too much effort to adopt some of the more comprehensive automatization solutions. The software developed is given as open-source JavaScript code freely available on GitHub.
