STAMPED Principles (Paper)

Build PDF

Manuscript formalizing the STAMPED properties for reproducible research objects:

📦 Self-contained: Everything under one boundary
🔍 Tracked: Version control & provenance
▶️ Actionable: Executable & documented workflows
🧩 Modular: Independent & composable modules
🚢 Portable: Runs anywhere with explicit specifications
💨 Ephemeral: Transient compute environment
🌐 Distributable: Shareable, persistent, and retrievable

Originating from the YODA Principles; earlier working names for this formalization included VAMP.
