RunMyCode – Enables Scientists To Openly Share the Code and Data That Underlie Their Research Publications
http://www.runmycode.org/

RunMyCode is an online repository allowing people to share and download computer code and data associated with scientific publications (articles and working papers). The RunMyCode website is operated by a not-profit making scientific association called the RunMyCode Association. The mission of the Association is to make academic easier to use and easier to replicate. RunMyCode is currently funded by several national research agencies and universities. RunMyCode follows three main objectives: The first objective is to allow researchers to quickly disseminate internationally the results of their research, which will considerably increase the potential of citations of scientific papers. The second objective is to provide a very large community of users with the ability to use the latest scientific methods. This will speed up the process of converting scientific results into productive forces. The third objective is to allow members of the academic community (researchers, editors, referees, etc.) to replicate scientific results and to demonstrate their robustness. A companion website is a website allowing people to download the computer code and data associated with a scientific publication (articles and working papers). A companion website consists of three main parts. The upper panel provides information about the publication including title, authors, link to the abstract and paper. The central panel presents the “RunMyCoders”, i.e., the researchers who share their code and data. Note that they may or may not be the authors of the publication. The lower panel includes a presentation of the files available for download, as well as some statistics about the companion website. This will be added to Business Intelligence Resources Subject Tracer™. This will be added to Entrepreneurial Resources Subject Tracer™. This will be added to the tools section of Research Resources Subject Tracer™.
