📣 PIDs for Software
This online seminar will explore how #PIDs can improve software documentation, citation, and preservation. We’ll cover national and international initiatives, such as HERMES software publication system and @swheritage ( #SWHID) including possibilities and practical challenges. Perspectives from @datacite and @DNB_Aktuelles will also be shared.
📅 30.06.2025
🕐 1:00 to 3:30 p.m.

En train de créer ma première page sur Wikipédia, les "Software Hash Identifier". Des sortes de DOI, des identifiants uniques pour les logiciels permettant de mieux référencer les différentes versions.
Hier j'ai tenté de commencer par une page presque vide avec un lien à la référence ISO. Refus du brouillon sur le wikipedia anglophone, demande de retrait immédiat sur le francophone 😱
Le wikimédien (🇫🇷) en face n'était pas tout à fait confiant par manque d'information, mais visiblement les négociations ont fonctionné.
La page Wikipédia en français pour « Software Hash Identifier », au stade d'ébauche : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_Hash_Identifier
Une nouvelle proposition de création de page a été soumise sur la version anglophone à partir de cette petite base en français, à voir 🙃
EDIT: La page existe ! Lien : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_Hash_Identifier
J'ai été étonné de ne pas voir de page pour cet identifiant sur Wikipedia (mais bon une standardisation ISO toute récente), je me suis lancé dans l'expérience. Cet identifiant pourrait être important dans la recherche au même titre que le DOI, de bonnes explications sur l'encyclopédie pourraient accompagner le monde de la recherche dans son appropriation.
Si jamais des contributeurs à wikipédia ou des connaisseurs des SWHID passent par là et voudraient suggérer quelques petites améliorations ! Je ne maîtrise pas vraiment l'univers, cela pourrait être une page sympa à suivre avec cette évolution potentielle des SWHID.
En exemple de SWHID, j'ai mis la version 3.0 de Linux 🤷 Vous metteriez quoi comme illustration anecdotique de version de logiciel/SWHID ?

A pretty big piece of news came in last week. #SWHID , a identifier and referencing scheme for software source devised by our friends at #SoftwareHeritage is now an ISO standard! https://www.iso.org/standard/89985.html . If you need to cite software, you know how to do so now.
Et en plus ces identifiants #SWHID sont maintenant une norme ISO. Plus d’excuse ! 😉

I recently saw this via LinkedIn posted by @rdicosmo.
And this is not a comprehensive answer to your question, but this could be one way towards recognizing (research) software and supporting the work and vision of Software Heritage @swheritage
Delighted to see that the #SWHID standard from @swheritage has been confirmed as ISO/IEC 18670:2025 - many congratulations to the team!
This is very significant as it means we can now reference SWHID within #CRA harmonised standards.
And of course ISO wants money for it despite it being created and contributed freely.

If you care about software #traceability #provenance #compliance #safety critical... you must learn about software intrinsic identifiers. This is an outstanding opportunity to learn about the most promising one, #SWHID https://www.fair-impact.eu/events/fair-impact-events/meet-software-hash-identifier-do-one-thing-and-do-it-well?utm_source=linkedin.com&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=FAIR%20Implementation%20Workshop%20-Meet%20the%20SoftWare%20Hash%20Identifier
Join the free webinar "Meet the SoftWare Hash Identifier" April 29, 14:00-16:00 CEST. Learn about research software identification with the @swheritage #OpenScience team, Morane Gruenpeter & Sabrina Granger.

Meet the SoftWare Hash Identifier #SWHID
SWHID for software identification provides actionable solutions to the end-users as well as to the repositories managers, metadata curators, etc.
📆 April 29th, from 14:00-16:00 CEST.

We had today the great pleasure of welcoming Jaime Arias (https://mastodon.social/@arias@lipn.info) from LIPN in my course on #reproducible #research at ENS Paris-Saclay. He explained how the Software Heritage platform and the #SWHID do facilitate reproducibility when dealing with source code associated to scientific publications. Thanks a lot Jaime for coming ;)
This video explains in a few minutes the relevance of having intrinsic identifiers, like SWHID, for software. It is the kind of detailed explanation that software developers will appreciate, I think https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0oLzVLhtIQ #swhid @swheritage
Tomorrow Jun 11 I'll be presenting the #SWHID (the Software Heritage Persistent Identifier) at #pidfest, an intrinsic identifier that points to permanently stored source #code, thus allow for #open #science fostering the scholarly ecosystem and much more! I'll briefly how the #IPOL journal integrates it in our publication workflow, as a use case. A joint work with @moranegg, the SWHID WG, and the Software Heritage team. #swh #research
🙌 Join us at #PIDFest to discover the #SWHID, an intrinsic and persistent identifier used in the scholarly ecosystem!
📅 #PIDFest2024 will take place next Tuesday, June 11th, and our session will be held at 15:30.
@mcolom, senior researcher at Centre Borelli, École normale supérieure Paris-Saclay, will be presenting #SWHID and Morane Gruenpeter, Head of #OpenScience at #SoftwareHeritage, will be joining it online.

#CISA has released a draft document on "Software Identification Ecosystem Option Analysis" (roughly: how to identify specific software artifacts that are relevant for security use cases): https://www.cisa.gov/resources-tools/resources/software-identification-ecosystem-option-analysis
It's important work that deserves attention and community discussion.
We, as @swheritage, have participated in the RFC (now closed) and submitted our comments here: https://www.regulations.gov/comment/CISA-2023-0026-0006
TL;DR: they should look into SWHIDs!
