Nicolas Rougier’s « Ten Years Reproducibility Challenge » in Nature

Nicolas Rougier, computational neuroscientist and programmer IMN / INRIA organized in June the « Ten Years Reproducibility Challenge, » with Konrad Hinsen, a theoretical biophysicist (CNRS). The goal of the Ten Years Reproducibility Challenge was to check if researchers would be able to run their own code that has been published at least ten years ago (i.e. before 2010).

In Nature

Nature published an article about the different problems the participants had to face :
Challenge to scientists: does your ten-year-old code still run? (24/08/2020):

Nicolas Rougier also did a podcast in collaboration with them:
