论文摘要
各种科学领域面临可重复性危机。因此,对于量子软件工程作为新兴领域,因此将从一开始就专注于适当的可重复性工程。然而,几乎普遍缺乏繁殖包的提供。关于如何构建此类包裹的可行建议很少见,尤其是在一个具有计算机科学以外背景的研究人员的贡献的领域中,这是不幸的。在本文中,我们争论如何通过为量子软件实验提出1-2-3〜的可重复性工程方法来纠正这种缺陷:使用元生成机制,我们生成了DOI安全,长期功能和无依赖性的无复制套件。它们旨在仅基于项目特定的研究文物(源代码,测量和配置数据)来满足专业和学识渊博的社会的要求,并且几乎不需要研究人员的时间投资。即使量子处理器本身不再可访问,我们的计划也可以确定长期的可追溯性。通过大大降低技术栏,我们在量子软件实验中促进了繁殖包的扩散,并简化了进入该领域的非CS研究人员的包含。
Various fields of science face a reproducibility crisis. For quantum software engineering as an emerging field, it is therefore imminent to focus on proper reproducibility engineering from the start. Yet the provision of reproduction packages is almost universally lacking. Actionable advice on how to build such packages is rare, particularly unfortunate in a field with many contributions from researchers with backgrounds outside computer science. In this article, we argue how to rectify this deficiency by proposing a 1-2-3~approach to reproducibility engineering for quantum software experiments: Using a meta-generation mechanism, we generate DOI-safe, long-term functioning and dependency-free reproduction packages. They are designed to satisfy the requirements of professional and learned societies solely on the basis of project-specific research artefacts (source code, measurement and configuration data), and require little temporal investment by researchers. Our scheme ascertains long-term traceability even when the quantum processor itself is no longer accessible. By drastically lowering the technical bar, we foster the proliferation of reproduction packages in quantum software experiments and ease the inclusion of non-CS researchers entering the field.
