This workshop explores the importance of archiving experiments and associated software along with scientific publications. It emphasizes the need for repeatable experiments and the availability of software for integration into other studies, ultimately driving the field forward. The workshop brings together various scientific communities, including physics and biomedical informatics, to discuss the changing landscape of publishing scientific experiments. Panel discussions focus on networking, compilers and programming languages, physics, biomedical informatics, and enabling technologies. The workshop aims to synthesize key ideas and draft a comprehensive report that will be published and shared with the National Science Foundation.

archive ‘10: Raising the Standard of Scientific Publishing Through an Experiment Archive Organizers: Mary Hall and Eric Eide May 25-26, 2010 This workshop has been sponsored by National Science Foundation award CRI-0709430.
Overview • Experimental computer science communities should archive experiments and associated software along with publications. • Repeatable experiments • Software available for integration into other studies • Moves the field forward • Scientific communities are already archiving their experiments and data. • Physics and Biomedical Informatics • Using computer science technology! • Publishing of scientific experiments is changing. • A movement among publishers, librarians and ACM. Join forces to discuss how to leverage each others’ technology and activities.
Organization into Panels 5 Panels, chair in parenthesis • Networking (Jeannie Albrecht) • Compilers and programming languages (David Padua) • Physics (Sergey Fomel) • Biomedical Informatics (Joel Saltz) • Enabling Technologies (Anita de Waard) Format • 10 minute presentations, initiated by panel chair • Followed by group discussion
Tomorrow’s Discussion Morning: Synthesize material from today • Start with summary of key ideas from each panel chair, kept to ~10 minutes • As a group, enumerate a set of key ideas to be discussed the rest of the morning • Take notes on discussion (for report) Afternoon: Draft report • Panel chairs or designates • From position papers, panel summaries and notes from discussion • Organization should follow panels unless a clearer idea emerges
Report from Workshop • Initially published as a University of Utah Tech Report and provided to NSF • Later a condensed summary paper published in a high visibility, broadly read forum • Discuss this tomorrow if possible
