ROSA22 - Citing and Improving the Discoverability of Your Research Software

For many of the articles published in astronomy and planetary sciences journals, software plays an integral role in the underlying research. Often, the software is actively developed using platforms such as GitHub, and where it can also be released, preserved, and cited via repository integrations such as Zenodo. Increasingly, authors are encouraged to share their software. Guidance is needed on how they can document and cite the software in their publications. This talk tutorial will discuss the steps involved in properly including software in your publications and receiving credit. It will also provide a brief overview of how GitHub can be used to streamline workflows and collaborate with other researchers.Presented at ROSA 22 Reproducibility and Open Science in Astronomy (10-12 May 2022 - Online workshop).
