any1 here doing Masters/PHD by research on Computer Science?

I'm currently writing a paper to a conference. How do I write a reference for a software tool?

For example like ArgoUML, it is a UML tool aka a software for drawing UML diagrams. Is it ok if I do the reference in this way?

ArgoUML, http://argouml.tigris.org/ (2011)

Or must I find the original published paper for the software (ArgoUML)?

You can cite this way:

A. Ramirez, P. Vanpeperstraete, A. Rueckert, K. Odutola, J. Bennett, L. Tolke. M. van der Wulp, ArgoUML User Manual: A tutorial and reference description, http:// argouml-stats.tigris.org/documentation/manual-0.34/, accessed 23/Oct/2014.

Please fix the link. Thanks.

Alrite, thx! Meaning I can also choose to just cite the user manual of the software? hmm.gif

Lowyat forum have a new function, it auto detects http website and make it into an embedded post. If i put the proper link it'll look weird. icon_rolleyes.gif

Nvm, I shall edit the post and put the normal link. smile.gif
