How would you like this library cited?

[mikedorin]

Hello,
I am using the library in a little paper and am going to give a citation.
Is there any other information you can give me on how you might like the work cited?

Thank you,
Mike

Hi Mike.

Thanks for your polite request. I don't have my name on the profile to stay anonymous online. Many papers just cite the URL i.e. "github.com/kokke/tiny-ECDH-c" sometimes with a date. Some also mention my username (although that is implicit in the URL).

For me that is perfect attribution 👍

If I ever wish to have my name associated with the publication(s) referencing my FOSS software, I can add it to the GitHub profile.

How does that work for you?

Do you have a pre-print of your work you can link to me ? I am always curious about scientific work referencing my GitHub repos 😆

Thanks again for asking

Thank you! That is how I will do the citation. I don't have a preprint quite yet, but I suspect the publication will be quick. Basically, I was experimenting with ECC performance on a couple of smallish devices. I also added a lookup table of precalculated values to see how much performance could improve. I will send you all the code that I wrote if you are interested. (Mind you, it was written for a paper so far, so is not 'production quality') Give me a couple of weeks to get through the paper review process. Thank you for having great work available.
