Upcoming event: REANA: A platform for reproducible computational data analyses

The Computational Reproducibility Working Group at SwissRN is kindly inviting you to the monthly seminar next week: Thursday, 20th June 2024, 11:00-12:00 via Zoom.

About REANA: REANA is a free and open source platform for reusable and reproducible data analyses. REANA allows researchers to structure information about input data, analysis code, containerised environments and computational workflows so that the data analyses can be instantiated and executed on remote compute clouds. REANA supports several declarative workflow systems (CWL, Snakemake, Yadage), container technologies (Apptainer, Docker) and compute backends (HTCondor, Kubernetes, Slurm). This talk presents several use cases from experimental particle physics, discusses sociological and technological challenges inherent in facilitating reusable computational research, and concludes with a live demo of the platform. REANA was built with particle physics use case in mind but aims to profit from computational reproducibility synergies with astronomy, life sciences and other scientific disciplines. REANA aims at providing an “analysis engine” complementing data repositories in view of facilitating data reuse and reinterpretation even several years after the original publication.
