论文摘要

天体物理学源代码库(ASCL)包含有关天体物理研究软件的3000个元数据记录,主要用作软件注册表,尽管它也可以并且确实接受代码存款。尽管ASCL始于1999年,但许多天文学家,尤其是该领域的新天文学家,对此并不熟悉。该动手虚拟教程专门用于资源的新用户,以教他们如何使用ASCL,重点是查找有关此资源中的软件和软件的信息,而且还使用Google和NASA的天体物理学数据系统(ADS)。借助对研究如此重要的计算方法,找到这些方法对于检查(透明度)和可能使用软件(可重复性或启用新研究)很有用。关于软件的元数据对于例如知道软件用于研究和研究计算局势趋势时如何引用软件很有用。尽管本教程主要针对新用户,但高级用户也可能会学习一些新的东西。

The Astrophysics Source Code Library (ASCL) contains 3000 metadata records about astrophysics research software and serves primarily as a registry of software, though it also can and does accept code deposit. Though the ASCL was started in 1999, many astronomers, especially those new to the field, are not very familiar with it. This hands-on virtual tutorial was geared to new users of the resource to teach them how to use the ASCL, with a focus on finding software and information about software not only in this resource, but also by using Google and NASA's Astrophysics Data System (ADS). With computational methods so important to research, finding these methods is useful for examining (for transparency) and possibly reusing the software (for reproducibility or to enable new research). Metadata about software is useful for, for example, knowing how to cite software when it is used for research and studying trends in the computational landscape. Though the tutorial was primarily aimed at new users, advanced users were also likely to learn something new.
