Description:

The goal of this Town Hall is to highlight and gather community feedback on open issues in curation, preservation and sharing of data and software from simulation based research. Topics for discussion include: 1)Sustainable Curation -How do we resource curation and ensure long term usability of simulation workflow software and outputs? For example, where do researchers deposit their data and software and how do they include associated costs in proposal budgets? 2)Equitable access to data and software curation resources -A general goal of open science is “equitable science”. Unfortunately inequitable access to resources that support software and data curation, including repositories, is a barrier for many to meeting community open science expectations. How do we address these issues, and what are the best paths forward?
