Summary:
"Dr. Daniel S. Katz (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign): Using citation to provide credit for software contributions
Wednesday, 9 August 2017, 3 to 3.30 pm CEST with a rerun on Monday, 14 August 2017, 3 to 3.30 pm CEST.
Most research today in many fields is dependent on software, but academic culture does not reward development, support, and maintenance of that software. A potential method to provide such credit is to insert software into the current publication/citation system. This talk will discuss an effort that is underway to do this, the FORCE11 Software Citation Implementation working group."
