Open Review in computer science Elsevier grand challenge on executable papers

We present Open Review, a web-based platform aimed at stimulating executable papers by means of post-publication peer-review. Its goal is to bring computer science researchers to collaboratively build their work upon previous research results, in such a way that transparency, reproducibility and sustainability of research results are greatly improved. The main design goals of the platform are clarity, conciseness, and reproducibility. Its main features are to: (i) provide incentives for making research communities to participate, (ii) make papers executable by means of boards' annotations, without necessarily involving the authors of an article, and (iii) give snapshots of the current research state on any given article.
