长期生产力带来长期影响

Long-term Productivity for Long-term Impact

Spencer Smith, Jacques Carette

摘要:

我们提出了一个新的概念定义的“生产力”可持续发展的研究软件。现有的定义是有缺陷的,因为它们有短期偏见,从而贬低了我们认为是主要目标的长期影响。从长远的角度看待生产力有助于解决这个问题。我们将开发过程的产出视为知识和用户满意度。用户满意度被用作有效质量的代表。明确强调产生的所有知识,而不仅仅是可操作的知识(代码),这意味着人类可重用的知识,即文档,在生产研究软件时也应该非常重视。

英文摘要:

We present a new conceptual definition of 'productivity' for sustainably developing research software. Existing definitions are flawed as they are short-term biased, thus devaluing long-term impact, which we consider to be the principal goal. Taking a long-term view of productivity helps fix that problem. We view the outputs of the development process as knowledge and user satisfaction. User satisfaction is used as a proxy for effective quality. The explicit emphasis on all knowledge produced, rather than just the operationalizable knowledge (code) implies that human-reusable knowledge, i.e. documentation, should also be greatly valued when producing research software.
