“In this second MOOC Reproducible Research II: Practices and tools for managing computations and data, we will show you how to improve your practices for managing large data and complex computations in controlled software environments:
- you will learn how to use formats like JSON, FITS, and HDF5, platforms like Zenodo and Software Heritage, tools like git-annex, docker, singularity, guix, make, and snakemake;
- we will show you how to integrate them in a real-life use case: a sunspot detection study. You will see for yourself that our methods and tools allow you to work in a reliable and reproducible way.
The strength of this new MOOC lies in a general and systematic presentation of the major concepts and of how they translate into practical solutions through numerous hands-on sessions with state-of-the-art open-source tools”.
