Many methods, including most of those published at ISMIR, are developed in tandem with software implementations and some of them are too complex or too fundamentally software-based to be reproduced readily from a published paper alone. For this reason, it is helpful for sustainable research to have software and data published along with papers. In practice, however, non-publication of code and data is still the norm.\line \line In this tutorial }{\cf1\b0\kerning1\hich\af9\langfe2052\dbch\af9\afs24\alang1081\ab0\rtlch \ltrch\loch\fs24\lang2057 -we will}{\cf1\b0\kerning1\hich\af8\langfe1033\dbch\af8\afs24\alang1033\ab0\rtlch \ltrch\loch\fs24\lang1033 - discuss barriers to publication of software and data and present a hands-on session in which attendees will explore tools and methods to help overcome these barriers. The tutorial will rapidly cover the use of version control software, code hosting facilities, aspects of testing and provenance, and software licensing for publication. Examples will be drawn from the music and audio fields, and help will be provided by researcher-developers from the Centre for Digital Music (C4DM), Lu\u237\'eds Figueira and Steve Welburn. This tutorial will be of immediate interest to researchers within the music informatics community, and will also be highly relevant to research supervisors and research group leaders with an interest in policy and guidance.} -\par \pard\plain \s0\ql\nowidctlpar\ltrpar{\*\hyphen2\hyphlead2\hyphtrail2\hyphmax0}\cf0\kerning1\hich\af9\langfe2052\dbch\af9\afs24\alang1081\loch\f5\fs24\lang2057\qj\widctlpar\faauto\li0\ri0\lin0\rin0\fi0{\b0\ab0\rtlch \ltrch\loch -} -\par \pard\plain \s0\ql\nowidctlpar\ltrpar{\*\hyphen2\hyphlead2\hyphtrail2\hyphmax0}\cf0\kerning1\hich\af9\langfe2052\dbch\af9\afs24\alang1081\loch\f5\fs24\lang2057\qj\widctlpar\faauto\li0\ri0\lin0\rin0\fi0{\cf1\b\kerning1\hich\af8\langfe1033\dbch\af8\afs24\alang1033\ab\rtlch \ltrch\loch\fs24\lang1033 -Biographies} -\par \pard\plain \s0\ql\nowidctlpar\ltrpar{\*\hyphen2\hyphlead2\hyphtrail2\hyphmax0}\cf0\kerning1\hich\af9\langfe2052\dbch\af9\afs24\alang1081\loch\f5\fs24\lang2057\qj\widctlpar\faauto\li0\ri0\lin0\rin0\fi0{\rtlch \ltrch\loch -} -\par \pard\plain \s0\ql\nowidctlpar\ltrpar{\*\hyphen2\hyphlead2\hyphtrail2\hyphmax0}\cf0\kerning1\hich\af9\langfe2052\dbch\af9\afs24\alang1081\loch\f5\fs24\lang2057\qj\widctlpar\faauto\li0\ri0\lin0\rin0\fi0{\cf1\b0\kerning1\hich\af9\langfe2052\dbch\af9\afs24\alang1081\ab0\rtlch \ltrch\loch\fs24\lang2057 -Chris Cannam is principal developer for the Sound Software }{\cf1\b0\kerning1\hich\af9\langfe2052\dbch\af9\afs24\alang1081\ab0\rtlch \ltrch\loch\fs24\lang2057 -project}{\cf1\b0\kerning1\hich\af9\langfe2052\dbch\af9\afs24\alang1081\ab0\rtlch \ltrch\loch\fs24\lang2057 -.

The tutorial will rapidly cover the use of version control software, code hosting facilities, aspects of testing and provenance, and software licensing for publication. Examples will be drawn from the music and audio fields, and help will be provided by researcher-developers from the Centre for Digital Music (C4DM), Lu\u237\'eds Figueira and Steve Welburn.

Many methods, including most -of those published at ISMIR, are developed in tandem with software -implementations, and some of them are too complex or too fundamentally -software-based to be reproduced readily from a published paper -alone. For this reason, it is helpful for sustainable research to have -software and data published along with papers. - -In practice, non-publication of code and data is still the norm and -research software is commonly lost following publication of the -associated methods. - -For the Sound Software project\footnote{\tt http://soundsoftware.ac.uk/} we -carried out a survey of UK audio and music researchers in 2011. Of -those respondents who reported both developing software during -research and taking steps to reproducibility for their publications, -only 35\% reported having in fact published any of their -code. Respondents cited as obstacles to publication of code lack of -time, copyright restrictions, and the potential for future commercial -use.
