被引用但未被存档:学术文章中代码引用状态分析

Cited But Not Archived: Analyzing the Status of Code References in Scholarly Articles

Emily Escamilla, Martin Klein, Talya Cooper, Vicky Rampin, Michele C. Weigle, Michael L. Nelson

AI总结:

本文分析了学术文章中Git托管平台URI的存档状态,发现93.98%仍可公开访问,68.39%被Software Heritage存档,81.43%被Web档案存档,揭示了代码引用面临的存档缺失风险。

摘要:

2021年发表的arXiv文章中,有五分之一包含指向Git托管平台(GHP)的URI,这表明GHP URI在学术出版物中日益普及。然而,GHP URI同样容易受到困扰整个Web的引用腐坏的影响。Gitorious和Google Code等软件托管平台及其包含的源代码的消失,威胁着研究的可重复性。存档GHP中可用的源代码和开发历史能够实现研究的长期可重复性。Software Heritage和Web档案包含了GHP URI资源的存档。然而,学术出版物引用的GHP URI是否包含在Software Heritage和Web档案集合中?我们分析了从学术出版物中提取的GHP URI数据集,以确定:(1)该URI在实时Web上是否仍然公开可用?(2)该URI是否已被Software Heritage存档?(3)该URI是否已被Web档案存档?在所有GHP URI中,我们发现93.98%在实时Web上仍然公开可用,68.39%已被Software Heritage存档,81.43%已被Web档案存档。

英文摘要:

One in five arXiv articles published in 2021 contained a URI to a Git Hosting Platform (GHP), which demonstrates the growing prevalence of GHP URIs in scholarly publications. However, GHP URIs are vulnerable to the same reference rot that plagues the Web at large. The disappearance of software hosting platforms, like Gitorious and Google Code, and the source code they contain threatens research reproducibility. Archiving the source code and development history available in GHPs enables the long-term reproducibility of research. Software Heritage and Web archives contain archives of GHP URI resources. However, are the GHP URIs referenced by scholarly publications contained within the Software Heritage and Web archive collections? We analyzed a dataset of GHP URIs extracted from scholarly publications to determine (1) is the URI still publicly available on the live Web?, (2) has the URI been archived by Software Heritage?, and (3) has the URI been archived by Web archives? Of all GHP URIs, we found that 93.98% were still publicly available on the live Web, 68.39% had been archived by Software Heritage, and 81.43% had been archived by Web archives.
