Summary of Examples

  • Data (including description, links to sources)
  • Code — reusable and publication-specific
  • Version & file management repository
  • Computational environment & Environment specification
  • Platform — main dependency, reusable code distribution platform
  • Rerunning/recomputing online platform
  • Publishing/preservation repository

Data in Binder and Code Ocean

  • Binder
    • 10s MB in Git repository
    • 100s MB downloaded by build script
    • downloaded on the fly or using Quilt
    • maybe use Pangeo instead of mybinder.org (no preservation plan yet)
  • Code Ocean
    • Smaller datasets part of the capsule (counts towards quota)
    • Larger datasets as standalone public datasets (no quota)

Help: Open Incubator Program at NC State

  • lib.ncsu.edu/open-incubator
  • OPEN (Open Project Engagement Network) Incubator
  • research development program
  • designed to advance a project from idea to proof-of-concept
  • produce research outputs that are FAIR
    • FAIR: Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable
  • possibly renewed for 2023 or use Open Knowledge Center
