A survey of the state of the practice for research software in the United States

Research software is a critical component of contemporary scholarship. Yet, most research software is developed and managed in ways that are at odds with its long-term sustainability. This paper presents findings from a survey of 1,149 researchers, primarily from the United States, about sustainability challenges they face in developing and using research software. Some of our key findings include a repeated need for more opportunities and time for developers of research software to receive training. These training needs cross the software lifecycle and various types of tools. We also identified the recurring need for better models of funding research software and for providing credit to those who develop the software so they can advance in their careers. The results of this survey will help inform future infrastructure and service support for software developers and users, as well as national research policy aimed at increasing the sustainability of research software.

> Since 2016.. I have devoted.. time and energy to the hardest problem.. computing education research.. it requires substantial work on both technical and human-factors.. the audience is often unsophisticated and vulnerable.. you can do real damage to not only individuals but also the field and society. The research vision above is the distillation of the direction of my computing education research.

> Programs ought to be be amenable to prediction. We need to know, as much as possible, before a program runs, how it will behave. This behavior includes not only technical characteristics such as running time, space, power, and so on, but also social impacts, benefits, and harms. Programmers have been notoriously poor at thinking about the latter.
