Open Science in Software Engineering
Open science describes the movement of making any research artefact available
to the public and includes, but is not limited to, open access, open data, and
open source. While open science is becoming generally accepted as a norm in
other scientific disciplines, in software engineering, we are still struggling
in adapting open science to the particularities of our discipline, rendering
progress in our scientific community cumbersome. In this chapter, we reflect
upon the essentials in open science for software engineering including what
open science is, why we should engage in it, and how we should do it. We
particularly draw from our experiences made as conference chairs implementing
open science initiatives and as researchers actively engaging in open science
to critically discuss challenges and pitfalls, and to address more advanced
topics such as how and under which conditions to share preprints, what
infrastructure and licence model to cover, or how do it within the limitations
of different reviewing models, such as double-blind reviewing. Our hope is to
help establishing a common ground and to contribute to make open science a norm
also in software engineering.Comment: Camera-Ready Version of a Chapter published in the book on

Abstracts are cited for 130 patents and patent applications introduced into the NASA scientific and technical information system during the period of January 1981 through July 1981. Each entry consists of a citation, an abstract, and in most cases, a key illustration selected from the patent or application for patent
Appraisal of Cashless Policy on the Nigerian Financial System
The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has been active in the inauguration of policies and schemes to foster the
implementation of the cashless policy in Nigeria. However the current transition to cashless economy raises
a lot of concerns with no substantial evidence yet to justify its implementation. This study was carried out in
order to appraise the implementation of the cashless policy since its introduction into the Nigerian financial
system in 2012 and also to examine the persistent challenges facing its implementation. In view of the above
stated objective, primary data were collected with the aid of the questionnaire, which was randomly
administered to 120 respondents ranging from First Bank, Zenith Bank and United Bank for Africa. The
banks were selected based on their total assets and the information collected covered the activities of the
CBN and that of these banks towards implementation of the cashless policy from 2012 till date.The data
collected were presented and analyzed with the aid of the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS)
using descriptive statistics and one-sample t-test. The results led to the conclusion that despite the need to
operate cashless transactions dominating the modern Nigerian economy, the cashless policy will have the
desired impact only if a lot is done to ensure the implementation of an effective cashless system
