The Role of Data Stewardship in Software Sustainability and Reproducibility
Maria J. Cruz;Shalini Kurapati;Yasemin Turkyilmaz-van der Velden
Publication Year: 2018,Page(s):1 - 8
Cited by: Papers (1)
Software and computational tools are instrumental for scientific investigation in today's digitized research environment. Despite this crucial role, the path towards implementing best practices to achieve reproducibility and sustainability of research software is challenging. Delft University of Technology has begun recently a novel initiative of data stewardship - disciplinary support for researc...Show More
Talk to Me: A Case Study on Coordinating Expertise in Large-Scale Scientific Software Projects
Publication Year: 2018,Page(s):9 - 18
Cited by: Papers (3)
Large-scale collaborative scientific software projects require more knowledge than any one person typically possesses. This makes coordination and communication of knowledge and expertise a key factor in creating and safeguarding software quality, without which we cannot have sustainable software. However, as researchers attempt to scale up the production of software, they are confronted by proble...Show More

Publication Year: 2018,Page(s):19 - 20
The "ELIXIR Training Platform" is partnering with The Carpentries (Software and Data Carpentry) to train life science researchers in computing and data management skills. The "ELIXIR Software development best practices" group, which is part of the ELIXIR Tools Platform, has proposed "Four simple recommendations to encourage best practices in research software" aiming to help researchers and develo...Show More
Mapping the Research Software Sustainability Space
Publication Year: 2018,Page(s):25 - 30
Cited by: Papers (3)
A growing number of largely uncoordinated initiatives focus on research software sustainability. A comprehensive mapping of the research software sustainability space can help identify gaps in their efforts, track results, and avoid duplication of work. To this end, this paper suggests enhancing an existing schematic of activities in research software sustainability, and formalizing it in a direct...Show More
Building a Sustainable Structure for Research Software Engineering Activities
Jeremy Cohen;Daniel S. Katz;Michelle Barker;Robert Haines;Neil Chue Hong
Publication Year: 2018,Page(s):31 - 32
Cited by: Papers (1)
The profile of research software engineering has been greatly enhanced by developments at institutions around the world to form groups and communities that can support effective, sustainable development of research software. We observe, however, that there is still a long way to go to build a clear understanding about what approaches provide the best support for research software developers in dif...Show More
Research software is an integral part of scientific investigations. The paper identifies challenges, risks and new opportunities in research software publication and discovery. The diverse code discovery landscape is mapped and agents with their business models identified. Examples for discovery tools and strategies are given to support the classification. Reproducibility of research and reuse of ...Show More
Survey on Research Software Engineering in the Netherlands
Ben van Werkhoven;Tom Bakker;Olivier Philippe;Simon Hettrick
Publication Year: 2018,Page(s):38 - 39
This paper presents a brief overview of the Research Software Engineering landscape in the Netherlands and includes a summary of the results from a survey held in December 2017 in the Netherlands and several other countries. The results show that best practices are widely adopted. Research software is produced by small teams or individuals, is often used for scientific publications, and is frequen...Show More
The Archive and Package (arcp) URI Scheme
Publication Year: 2018,Page(s):40 - 44
Cited by: Papers (1)
The arcp URI scheme is introduced for location-independent identifiers to consume or reference hypermedia and linked data resources bundled inside a file archive, as well as to resolve archived resources within programmatic frameworks for Research Objects. The Research Object for this article is available at http://s11.no/2018/arcp.html#ro.Show More
Preserving Reproducibility: Provenance and Executable Containers in DataONE Data Packages
Publication Year: 2018,Page(s):45 - 49
Cited by: Papers (2)
Many data packaging standards are available to researchers and data repository operators and the choice to use an existing standard or create a new one is challenging. We introduce the DataONE Data Package standard which is based on the existing OAI-ORE Resource Map standard. We describe the functionality Data Package provides, implementation considerations, compare it to existing standards, and d...Show More
A Research Object-Based Toolkit to Support the Earth Science Research Lifecycle
Raul Palma;Andres Garcia-Silva;Jose Manuel Gomez-Perez;Marcin Krystek
Publication Year: 2018,Page(s):50 - 57
Cited by: Papers (2)
Data-intensive science disciplines, like Earth Science, are increasingly producing and consuming a variety of digital resources during the course of a scientific investigation. Instead of having these resources in isolated repositories, scientists are seeking ways for managing and making these resources available from a single place, and at the same time they are also increasingly interested in th...Show More
Digital Methods in Holocaust Studies: The European Holocaust Research Infrastructure
Daan de Leeuw;Mike Bryant;Michal Frankl;Ivelina Nikolova;Vladimir Alexiev
Publication Year: 2018,Page(s):58 - 66
Cited by: Papers (2)
Digital methods and tools for the humanities also change historical research into the Holocaust. The European funded Holocaust project EHRI has developed various digital tools and methods that facilitate Holocaust research. This paper will describe a number of them and discuss how they affect scholarship into the annihilation of European Jews.Show More
Catching Toad Calls in the Cloud: Commodity Edge Computing for Flexible Analysis of Big Sound Data
Publication Year: 2018,Page(s):67 - 74
Cited by: Papers (5)
Passive acoustic recording has great potential for monitoring both endangered and pest species. However, the automatic analysis of natural sound recordings is challenging due to geographic variation in background sounds in habitats and species calls. We have designed and deployed an acoustic sensor network constituting an early warning system for a vocal invasive species, in particular cane toads....Show More
FATBIRD: A Tool for Flight and Trajectories Analyses of Birds
Daniyal Kazempour;Anna Beer;Friederike Herzog;Daniel Kaltenthaler;Johannes-Y. Lohrer;Thomas Seidl
Publication Year: 2018,Page(s):75 - 82
Cited by: Papers (1)
Analyzing flyways of birds is one approach ornithologists pursue e.g. to be able to detect potential risks during the animal's migration. But this analysis is not trivial and the functionalities of existing supporting tools are neither perfect nor all-encompassing. In this paper, we introduce our new FATBIRD Tool, which not only visualizes flyways or arbitrary trajectories, but also helps the rese...Show More
Nanopublications: A Growing Resource of Provenance-Centric Scientific Linked Data
Tobias Kuhn;Albert Meroño-Peñuela;Alexander Malic;Jorrit H. Poelen;Allen H. Hurlbert;Emilio Centeno Ortiz;Laura I. Furlong;Núria Queralt-Rosinach;Christine Chichester;Juan M. Banda;Egon Willighagen;Friederike Ehrhart;Chris Evelo;Tareq B. Malas;Michel Dumontier

Cited by: Papers (15)
Nanopublications are a Linked Data format for scholarly data publishing that has received considerable uptake in the last few years. In contrast to the common Linked Data publishing practice, nanopublications work at the granular level of atomic information snippets and provide a consistent container format to attach provenance and metadata at this atomic level. While the nanopublications format i...Show More
