Dicas para escrever abstracts - Parte 1

Estou reescrevendo o artigo que submeti para o ICSE e me deparei com esse artigo bem bacana. Em linhas gerais, ele faz uma revisão nas submissões aceitas no ICSE e extrai dicas de como escrever um bom artigo. Dentre elas, está a dica de como escrever um abstract:

* Two or three sentences about the current state of the
art, identifying a particular problem

* One or two sentences about what this paper contributes to improving the situation

* One or two sentences about the specific result of the
paper and the main idea behind it

* A sentence about how the result is demonstrated or defended


Alguém mais contribui?

Tem o template do papa Dejan (acho que já escrevi em outro lugar):

1. Here is what the state-of-art is today.
2. Here is what is the problem with it (otherwise it does not make sense to do anything about it)
3. Here is what we have done
4. Here is why our work matters (otherwise our work does not matter at all)

Eu gosto de seguir o Kent Beck:

The abstract is your four sentence summary of the conclusions of your paper. Its primary purpose is to get your paper into the A pile. Most PC members sort their papers in an A pile and a B pile by reading the abstracts. The A pile papers get smiling interest, the B pile papers are a chore to be slogged through. By keeping your abstract short and clear, you greatly enhance your chances of being in the A pile. I try to have four sentences in my abstract. The first states the problem. The second states why the problem is a problem. The third is my startling sentence. The fourth states the implication of my startling sentence. An abstract for this paper done in this style would be:

* The rejection rate for OOPSLA papers in near 90%. Most papers are rejected not because of a lack of good ideas, but because they are poorly structured. Following four simple steps in writing a paper will dramatically increase your chances of acceptance. If everyone followed these steps, the amount of communication in the object community would increase, improving the rate of progress.
