New NISO Project: Badging Scheme for Reproducibility in the Computational and Computing Sciences
New NISO Project: Badging Scheme for Reproducibility in the Computational and Computing Sciences
January 2019
Call for Participation
NISO voting members have approved a new project, Recommended Practice: Toward a Compatible Taxonomy, Definitions, and Recognition Badging Scheme for Reproducibility in the Computational and Computing Sciences. As publishers and researchers are placing greater emphasis on the practice of reproducibility as an essential ingredient of the scientific research process, it is critical to make compatible the taxonomies used to define the various levels of reproducibility and to agree on a standardized badging scheme that can be applied in the publishing process. This project will forge agreement and move toward a common vocabulary, focusing on standardization across the Computational and Computing Sciences. Those who are interested in participating on this working group should contact NISO Associate Director of Programs, Nettie Lagace, at nlagace@niso.org.
