This is stored in machine-actionable and human-readable plain-text, enabling version-control, cheap archiving, automatic parsing to extract data provenance, and peer-reviewable verification. Furthermore, we show that these criteria are not limited to long-term reproducibility but also provide immediate, fast short-term reproducibility. - The example implementation has been tested in several research publications including the present one, with snapshot \projectversion. + The example implementation has been tested in several research publications including the present one. %%CONCLUSION We conclude that requiring longevity from solutions is realistic. We discuss the benefits of these criteria for scientific progress. |
