Sometimes referred to as non-functional requirements, these are the qualities that make it beneficial to use the SKOPE system compared to using ad hoc scripts, running individual programs directly, managing data manually, etc.
| Attribute | Description | Strategies |
|---|---|---|
| Transparent | Easy to determine the provenance, ownership, usage rights, and citations for any digital artifacts either available to researchers through SKOPE, or used to produce or deliver the artifacts available through SKOPE, where digital artifacts include data sets, visualizations, scripts, and software packages. | |
| Repeatable | Practical within the SKOPE environment to repeat all or a subset of the sequences of computations and other operations involved in the production of any data artifact or visualization created through the SKOPE system. Feasible to reproduce the steps necessary to produce any such artifact or visualization outside of the SKOPE system. | |
