Reproducibility Report for ACM SIGMOD 2024 Paper: 'On The Reasonable Effectiveness of Relational Diagrams'

The paper [1] introduces Relational Diagrams, a visual representation of relational queries, and presents two experimental studies: a textbook analysis and a user study. The authors made all necessary files and scripts available for reproducibility through an Open Science Framework project. During the reproducibility process, a minor error was identified in the analysis of the textbook queries, though it does not affect the main conclusions of the paper. The figures reproduced for the user study are nearly identical to the ones presented in the paper. Overall, all major findings of the paper were successfully reproduced.

Abstract

The paper [1] introduces Relational Diagrams, a visual representation of relational queries, and presents two experimental studies: a textbook analysis and a user study. The authors made all necessary files and scripts available for reproducibility through an Open Science Framework project. During the reproducibility process, a minor error was identified in the analysis of the textbook queries, though it does not affect the main conclusions of the paper. The figures reproduced for the user study are nearly identical to the ones presented in the paper. Overall, all major findings of the paper were successfully reproduced.
