Guide for Authors/Researchers

Detailed documentation and How-To's about CREDIT Suite, to enhance reusability & reproducibility of research outputs.

CREDIT Suite

It's a workflow software tool that guides article authors to create Reuse Recipe Document to make the scientific outputs (experiments) including Additional Research Objects (AROs, i.e datasets and null results) more easily reproducible/reusable. It captures the attempt of reuse by other researchers over the period of time post publications to recognize how others are reusing & reproducing research outputs. Hence, making the improvement of research outputs a continuous process rather than one-time event.

Fig.1 Overview of the Reuse Recipe Document

Scope for editing Reuse Recipe Document in future

Authors can edit the published Reuse Recipe Document in future to add more details to it. With this, they can add more details about the experiments & methods to facilitate easy reuse of research outputs as well as address requests from researchers & readers. All the versions with changes will be saved & preserved reflecting authors commitment towards reproducibility & Open Science (Fig.2).
