Data Bytes - Creating Software Management Plans for Open Science Initiatives

This session is designed to help researchers understand the core components of a software management plan, an essential element of an open science and data management plan. We’ll explore what a software management plan is, why it’s crucial for open science, and will provide workflows, best practices and training resources. We'll cover key elements of a robust plan, including version control practices, documentation standards, licensing considerations, and strategies for ensuring long-term accessibility and reproducibility of scientific software.

Data Bytes are short data-related talks, hosted by Data Services, and offered during lunch on Mondays. Visit the Data Bytes Schedule to see all Data Bytes sessions this fall.
