[science-iwg] Scientific papers - scientific software
|
Hi folks,
Martin gave an excellent talk about the publication of software at the
EGU meeting yesterday. Scientists get reward for papers but not for
software. Papers are cited, software not. That's a drawback for a
scientific career. As we know, software has become crucial in scientific
research nowadays. Hence, I'd like to share some of Martin's ideas with you:
* Certain Science/LocationTech WG releases/packages get a DOI
* The DOI points to a landing page with appropriate metadata to cite the
release/package
* The release/package can be cited and will be ranked on Google Scholar
and other systems
= This could be an incentive for more scientists to publish their
software under the umbrella of the Science and LocationTech WG.
What's your opinion?
Best,
Philip
