Reproducible Research, the de facto title of a growing movement within many scientific fields, would require the code, used to generate the experimental results, be published along with any paper. Probably the most compelling argument for this is that it is simply following good scientific practice, established over the years by the greats of science. It is further claimed that misconduct is ca...

A cornerstone of scientific progress is the ability to reproduce experimental results. However, in the context of network benchmarking, system complexity impedes a researcher’s attempts to record all of the information needed to exactly reconstruct a network-benchmarking experiment. Without this information, results may be misinterpreted and are unlikely to be reproducible. This paper presents ...

of research papers. But this development also poses some important challenges. The large amount of project-specific software being generated for analytical studies means that analytical standards are harder to establish, potentially limiting the reproducibility of much of recently published science. Also, analytical and coding errors may escape detection, with potentially highly problematic res...

With the increasing amount of data and use of computation in science, software has become an important component in many different domains. Computing is now being used more often and in more aspects of scientific work including data acquisition, simulation, analysis, and visualization. To ensure reproducibility, it is important to capture the different computational processes used as well as th...

Classes.LangClass.SFSTOutput(sFormat, ExtraArg) This SFSTOutput() function is defined for the class AlternativeContexts, which encodes a set of alternative phonological contexts forming part of the environment of such a phonological rule (or a phonologically determined allomorph); for example, the context of a long vowel or a vowel plus consonant. The function is called with an argument list sp...

“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...
