Abstract:
Open Science is a tidal wave that is expected to have a deep and long lasting impact on the way we conduct, share and evaluate research awareness is rising about the fact that software has a key role to play, on par with open access to research articles and data, and that it comes with specific challenges when it comes to archiving, referencing, describing and citing research software.
Open Source is at the heart of our digital society and embodies a growing part of our technical and organisational knowledge. It speeds up innovation, but also raises key challenges about the quality, evolution and security of the many components that are put together in modern software systems: how to be sure that the source code of a key module we use will be still there when we need it in the future? do we really know what source code we are using, and where it comes from? how can we address cybersecurity if we do not know? how do we share this
information across the software supply chain?
In this talk we will survey policy news and explore in depth the approach taken by the Software Heritage, an open non-profit initiative, in partnership with Unesco, to preserve, reference and share all the publicly available source code, and to help address the above issues.
With 14 billions unique source files from 210 million repositories, it is the largest archive of source code ever built, and provides the key shared infrastructure to address these questions in the long term.
