I’m planning on not only publishing the source for my article, but I will also make it available in a new research collaboration database format which I am creating in Julia. This was described earlier > [@Citations in docs](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/citations-in-docs/5066/30): > > Somewhat tangentially related: I am currently creating a package that will allow people to maintain a database of LaTeX notes, and the Julia package will automatically be able to parse this database of LaTeX notes to extract citations, references, and it will allow authors to generate graph diagrams depicting the inter-relationship and dependencies of definitions, theorems, calculations, references, and results. It might be possible to substitute it in place of a docs system in the future, but f… This is going to be a LaTeX-based research tool that can be used from the Julia REPL to dynamically edit and generate reports, books, documents, lecture notes, etc. It is going to be the first research paper assembled using this new database format, based on a maintained collection of typeset “vertices.” --- _[View the full topic](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/ann-julia-special-issue-in-advances-in-engineering-software/11874)._
