This award will support a 1.5 day workshop in Arlington, VA to bring together the community of SI2 awardees with the aims of: 1) serving as a forum for focused PI technical exchange, through an early evening poster session; 2) serving as a forum for discussion of topics of relevance to the PIs from topics emerging both from within NSF and from the broader community, by informing the attendees of emerging best practices, and stimulating thinking on new ways of achieving sustainability and of ensuring that the foundation laid by SI2 is preserved into the future; and 3) gathering experiences and a shared sense of best practice that results in a published workshop report. The workshop will bring together researchers who are a proto-community of NSF open source software developers. The meeting will examine the characteristics of the community, and consider whether the products from the program can be enhanced by giving the community a new identify and new way of looking at itself. The meeting will also address citation, attribution, and reproducibility, which are three related topics often discussed in the context of data, but less so in the context of software. The attendees will consider practical steps that could be taken to advance software citation and science reproducibility. Finally, sustainability of software is a major topic for NSF and for the SI2 PIs. The meeting will highlight new ways of thinking about software sustainability, drawing on experts in the field and on recent SI2 EAGER funded projects that are studying the community to help the workshop attendees in their thinking about sustainability.The community outputs of the workshop will be: posters developed by the SI2 PIs that will be shared amongst the attendees and shared more broadly on the workshop web site; an experiences report (licensed under a Creative Commons license) produced by the award PIs, distributed via the workshop web site, via email to participants who will be asked to disseminate among their project colleagues and peers, and via an archive repository through which it will be accessible through a persistent ID; and attendee journalism during the event in the form of a public Google doc and public Twitter stream.

该奖项将在弗吉尼亚州阿灵顿举行的1.5天研讨会，以通过以下方式将SI2获奖者社区汇集在一起​​：1）通过傍晚的海报会议作为集中PI技术交流的论坛； 2）作为讨论与PI相关的主题的论坛，从NSF内部和更广泛的社区出现，通过告知与会者新兴的最佳实践，并激发人们对实现可持续性的新方法的思考，并确保SI2奠定的基金会被保存到未来中； 3）收集经验和共同的最佳实践感，这会导致发表的研讨会报告。研讨会将召集研究人员，这些研究人员是NSF开源软件开发人员的原始社区。会议将检查社区的特征，并考虑是否可以通过给社区一种新的认同和新的观察方式来增强该计划的产品。会议还将解决引用，归因和可重复性，这是在数据背景下经常讨论的三个相关主题，但在软件的背景下却较少。与会者将考虑可以采取的实用步骤，以提高软件引用和科学可重复性。最后，软件的可持续性是NSF和SI2 PI的主要主题。这次会议将重点介绍有关软件可持续性的新方式，借鉴了该领域的专家以及最近的SI2急切资助的项目，这些项目正在研究社区，以帮助工作室参与者思考可持续性。研讨会的社区成果将为：SI2 PIS开发的海报，这些海报将在参与者中共享，并在工作室网站上共享更广泛的范围。由PIS颁发的经验报告（根据Creative Commons许可获得许可），该奖项通过研讨会网站分发，通过电子邮件发送给参与者，他们将被要求在其项目同事和同伴之间传播，并通过档案存储库来通过该档案存储库，通过该档案库，可以通过持久的ID访问它；活动期间的与会者新闻业以公共Google文档和公共Twitter流的形式。
