Di Cosmo [email protected] (CC-BY 4.0) Software Pillar of Open Science October 29, 2025 18 / 18 Key Findings 65% Standalone Applications Independent software tools that operate without requiring external dependencies or frameworks 77% Community-Driven Produced by collaborative communities of 2–20 people, fostering knowledge sharing 33% Have Governance Established governance structures ensuring sustainable development and maintenance Universal Research Impact All research fields produce software, demonstrating the fundamental role of computational tools across scientific disciplines from humanities to hard sciences, every domain contributes to the research software ecosystem. Licensing Landscape Open Source Proprietary Other/Unspecified Open-Source Dominance Nearly 70% of research software adopts open-source licensing, reflecting the scientific community's commitment to transparency, reproducibility, and collaborative innovation. Strategic Implications Open-source licensing serves as the primary diffusion mode, facilitating knowledge transfer, reducing barriers to entry, and enabling researchers and industry worldwide to build upon existing work. Only 10% remains under restrictive proprietary licenses. Software Usage and Impact Long-term Production Research software demonstrates remarkable longevity, being produced and actively used for many years. Beyond Laboratory Walls Usage extends far beyond the originating laboratory, creating networks of adoption across institutions. Industry Adoption Research software transcends academic boundaries, finding applications in commercial and industrial contexts. 36% Have Large Communities Over 100 users each, indicating substantial impact and adoption rates that extend research influence globally Strong International Visibility French research software gains recognition worldwide, contributing to France's scientific reputation Impact Beyond Research Applications in education, industry, and public sector demonstrate broad societal value creation Software archival and development platforms Code preservation Only 20% of research software is currently author-archived in Software Heritage, the premier long-term preservation platform for source code(*). This represents a significant opportunity for improving the sustainability and accessibility of research outputs. Development platforms An overwhelming 73% of projects utilize software forges for development and collaboration. GitHub dominates this landscape, followed by GitLab.com, providing essential infrastructure for version control, issue tracking, and community engagement. (*) a much larger percentage is automatically harvested by Software Heritage, hence preserved without the authors even knowing Academic and economic value Academic Publications 76% Scientific Publications Economic Valorisation Pathways Direct exploitation contracts 10% of research software operates under formal exploitation agreements, establishing clear commercial frameworks for technology transfer and revenue generation Service-based value creation 23% generate economic value through complementary services built around the software—including consulting, training, customization, and technical support Job creation impact 14% contribute to French economic growth by creating employment opportunities, demonstrating tangible socioeconomic benefits beyond research applications Research software demonstrates significant academic value through one or more scientific publications. Most research software contributes directly to scholarly knowledge, serving as both a research tool and a research outcome that advances scientific understanding. Conclusion Universal practice Active software production is a common practice across all scientific communities, demonstrating computational tools as essential research infrastructure Open-Source leadership Open-source licensing dominates as the preferred distribution method, fostering collaboration and knowledge sharing while maintaining commercial viability Economic compatibility Open licensing creates no barriers to economic valorization, enabling diverse business models and commercial applications Open-source research software > Dynamic and innovative but needs support Require structured support to ensure : •Sustainable maintenance and adoption, •Foster user communities •Maximize the comprehensive impact across scientific, technological, and economic domains Challenges & Perspectives Strategic Development Help scientists and organizations develop comprehensive strategies for dissemination and valorization, ensuring research software reaches its maximum potential impact and sustainability Enhanced Governance Strengthen software governance at both project and organizational levels, establishing clear decision-making processes, quality standards, and longterm maintenance protocols Comprehensive Legal Protection Legal protection extends beyond simple license selection. Securing software authorship, facilitating scientific knowledge sharing, and creating transfer opportunities requires diverse protective methods and strategic legal frameworks These challenges represent opportunities to create more robust, sustainable, and impactful research software ecosystems that benefit both academic and commercial stakeholders.

A Definition of an Academic OSPO, Version 1.0.1. CURIOSS.org 9 Activities of OSPO@UGA: let’s take some examples ●Best practices are a key aspect of open source development. ▸Support communities, helpdesk: [email protected] ▸Exchanges within and between communities: seminars, webinars ●Educational efforts ▸Training doctoral students ●Digital module: git, gitlab, cmake, compilation, parallelisation ●Open science module: software (best practices, dissemination, legal issues, etc.), reproductibility ▸Train on a large scale ●Floss@UGA: thematic school about the legal framework of open source software (2025) ●In 2026, a new thematic school on free software communities 10 Activities of OSPO@UGA: let’s take some examples ●Working with Tech Transfer ▸The technological transfert and legal departments play a key role in the area of software ▸Some of them have relatively little overall expertise in the area of open source software. ▸Close collaboration with Tech Transfer services involves an active working groupe on licences, guidelines, training, etc. ●Tools and infrastructures ▸It is essential to provide tools and infrastructure that are tailored to the needs of communities. ▸In particular, access to a software forge is crucial. ●This must be provided with the right tools and support. ●CI/registry/GitLab pages are also important. ●It should also have shared runners and accept private runners. 11 Activities of OSPO@UGA: let’s take some examples ●Community building ▸Floss mailing list: A discussion list for exchanging ideas about free software in Grenoble ▸Software and open science information: a dedicated web site compiling information on open science included publications, data and software ●https://scienceouverte.univ-grenoble-alpes.fr/codes-et-logiciels/ ●Advocacy and policy ▸Adopting open science at an institutional level is an essential first step. ▸In 2022, the University of Grenoble Alpes (UGA) voted on its open science charter and master plan, which included the issue of software alongside data and publications from the outset. ▸The aim is to build on this foundation by promoting recommendations, particularly with regard to theses. The OSPO makes proposals to the governance on these subjects. 12 Key Takeaways and Future Outlook ●Supporting the development of open-source software on a site like Grenoble is a multifaceted challenge. ●We must first be able to address both technical and legal questions. ▸The open-source world has its own framework that needs to be understood - and colleagues need guidance to navigate it. ●Close collaboration with legal and technology transfer services is essential. ●Strong involvement is also required at the level of infrastructures and tools. ●Training - as well as building and sustaining communities - is at the heart of the effort. ●Finally, complementary expertise is key: technical, open-source, legal, librarian, and more Connected Excellence in Research The Importance of Software Eco Systems in Europe Presentation of a white paper produced by ERCIM October 2025 Connected Excellence in Research Founded in 1989 to connect the leading ICT institutes in Europe.
