Reproducible Research in Computational Science

Reproducible research in computational science.

Computational science has led to exciting new developments, but the nature of the work has exposed limitations in our ability to evaluate published findings. Reproducibility has the potential to serve as a minimum standard for judging scientific claims when full independent replication of a study is not possible.

Wave Propagation Software, Computational Science, and Reproducible Research

Wave propagation algorithms are a class of high-resolution finite volume methods for solving hyperbolic partial differential equations arising in diverse applications. The development and use of the clawpack software implementing these methods serves as a case study for a more general discussion of mathematical aspects of software development and the need for more reproducibility in computation...

Open science and reproducible research.

“Scientists should communicate the data they collect and the models they create, to allow free and open access, and in ways that are intelligible, assessable and usable for other specialists . . . Where data justify it, scientists should make them available in an appropriate data repository.” So said the Royal Society last week, in its report Science as an Open Enterprise: Open Data for Open Sc...
