How are coders recognized?
• Through the CSDMS web site, • with the metadata following the model, • with GPL2 software license protection, • through community exposure, vetting and recognition, • through accelerated citations within CSDMS-supported peer-reviewed publications. The CSDMS Integration Facility will insist on best practices to ensure that proper credit is provided by those who use CSDMS products, along with proper protection of, for example, contributions by graduate students. CSDMS has the advantage of following in the footsteps of the CCSM and CIG initiatives.
