DescriptionReproducibility is an important concern in all areas of
computation. As such, computational reproducibility is
receiving increasing interest from a variety of parties
who are concerned with different aspects of
computational reproducibility. Computational
reproducibility encompasses several concerns including
the sharing of code and data, as well as reproducible
numerical results which may depend on operating system,
tools, levels of parallelism, and numerical effects. In
addition, the publication of reproducible computational
results motivates a host of computational
reproducibility concerns that arise from the fundamental
notion of reproducibility of scientific results that has
normally been restricted to experimental science. This
workshop combines the Numerical Reproducibility at
Exascale Workshops (conducted in 2015 and 2016 at SC)
and the panel on Reproducibility held at SC16
(originally a BOF at SC15) to address several different
issues in reproducibility that arise when computing at
exascale. The workshop will include issues of numerical
reproducibility as well as approaches and best practices
to sharing and running code.
