SUMMARY:MS2B - The Science of Scientific Software Development and Use: Inv
 estment in Software is Investment in Science
DESCRIPTION:Minisymposium\n\nScientific software development is integral t
 o scientific discovery. Reliable software practices are crucial for ensuri
 ng the trustworthiness of scientific results. Given its significance, stud
 ying and enhancing scientific software development through scientific meth
 ods is highly beneficial. The challenge lies in improving the development 
 and utilization of scientific software encompassing a broad scope of conce
 rns from individual practices to multi-disciplinary team efforts and addre
 ssing the need for more effective tools, methods, and infrastructure. The 
 US Department of Energy's report on The Science of Scientific Software Dev
 elopment and Use highlights three priority research directions and three c
 ross-cutting themes focusing on developer productivity, team dynamics, wor
 kforce challenges, and broader scientific collaboration. This minisymposiu
 m explores these research directions and themes, drawing on experiences wi
 th emerging tools, including generative AI, social and cognitive sciences,
  and organizational psychology. It emphasizes the importance of considerin
 g various aspects of software development, from maintenance to policy deve
 lopment. Underpinning the discussion will be a focus on improving individu
 als' and teams' productivity and work experience and creating pathways for
  the next generation of scientists to gain experience and join our communi
 ties.\n\nUsing Data Journey Modelling to Understand Barriers and Bottlenec
 ks in Workflows Using Health and Environment Data\n\nClimate change is a m
 ajor problem in the world. Changes brought about by the Industrial Revolut
 ion resulted in an overall increase in global average temperatures, and ai
 r quality due to increased greenhouse gas emissions. These changes have di
 rectly and indirectly been linked to health. To clearly s...\n\n\nPauline 
 Karega (University of Manchester)\n---------------------\nStudying Artifac
 t Evaluation to Improve Reproducibility and Usability\n\nResearchers suppo
 rt reproducibility and rigorous science by sharing and reviewing research 
 artifacts—the documentation and code necessary to replicate a computationa
 l study. Creating quality research artifacts and conducting reviews for co
 nferences and journals are both considered to be time c...\n\n\nJohanna Co

 ----------------\nUsing Complexity Metrics to Support CSE Software Sustain
 ability: Summarizing a Family of Empirical Studies\n\nSoftware sustainabil
 ity is critical for Computational Science and Engineering (CSE) software. 
 It is also challenging for several reasons, including that CSE software pr
 ojects often begin as a research activity. Highly complex code makes softw
 are more difficult to maintain and less sustainable. Code ...\n\n\nJim Wil
 lenbring (Sandia National Laboratories)\n---------------------\nDiversity 
 in Research Software Engineering and Consulting\n\nDiversity plays a cruci
 al role in team and organizational success, with positive and challenging 
 implications. Social information processing theory highlights the benefits
  of diverse perspectives, whereas social identity theory points to potenti
 al issues like reduced cohesion and increased conflict....\n\n\nSabine The
