Science is built upon foundations of theory and experiment validated and improved through open, trans-parent communication. With the increasingly central role of computation in scientific discovery this means communicating all details of the computations needed for others to replicate the experiment, i.e. making avail-able to others the associated data and code. The “reproducible research ” movement recognizes that traditional scientific research and publication practices now fall short of this ideal, and encourages all those involved in the production of computational science – scientists who use computational methods and the institutions that employ them, journals and dissemination mechanisms, and funding agencies – to facilitate and practice really reproducible research
