Research software
Software has become an integral part of academic research. The Research Software Directory is one of the primary ways the eScience Center aims to encourage the re-use of software across disciplines. Since its launch in 2018, the RSD and its underlying infrastructure have been made available open source to partners and researchers as a way to ease the findability, scientific referencing and reproducibility of research software.
