At the upcoming Computational Social Science Conference: Innovative Methods, Research Workflows, and Data Stewardship taking place on 28-29 October 2024 in Barcelona, TIER2 will be featured in Session 5: Provenance, Lineage, and Reproducibility.
Tony Ross-Hellauer, coordinator of the TIER2 Project, will present on 29 October, from 2 PM, with his talk titled "Reproducibility Challenges in Computational Social Science: Insights from the TIER2 Project."

Tony will discuss how reproducibility, broadly defined as the ability to achieve consistent results in repeated experiments or analyses, is critical for research credibility. However, reproducibility challenges vary across disciplines due to differences in research methods and cultures, also known as "epistemic diversity." During his session, Tony will present the TIER2 project’s efforts to develop a researcher checklist aimed at improving reproducibility in CSS.

Organised by Barcelona Supercomputing Center, CODATA, the Committee on Data of the International Science Council, and Fundació La Caixa - CSS conference will bring together experts from communities involved in domain and data where new methods at the cutting edge of advanced computational social science will be examined. Additionally, enablers for CSS will focus on data policies, data access, data stewardship, and the attendant technologies and industry standards. This conference will emphasisе on the importance of transparency and reproducibility and explore how this can be demonstrated in CSS.
