IN13B:
Enabling Scientific Analysis, Data Reuse, and Open Science through Free and Open Source Software I Posters


Session ID#: 8575

Session Description:
Software is critical to the success of science. Creating and reusing scientific software that is Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) fosters contributions from the scientific community, creates a peer-reviewed and consensus oriented environment, and promotes sustainability of science infrastructure. Providing open access to source code also permits reuse of data, reproducibility of science, and facilitates scientific transparency. Open science is possible through the availability of open access data that are accessible through the use of open source software and responsible software development and through stewardship practices for managing, processing and disseminating scientific data products and related services. This session focuses on how FOSS contributes to the evolution of software and science infrastructure and also on the benefits attained from the creation, dissemination, and licensing of open source software to facilitate the use of open data and enable open science.
