EasyScienceGateway: A new framework for providing reproducible user environments on science gateways

Year: 2023

Type: article

Abstract: Summary Science gateways have become a core part of the cyberinfrastructure ecosystem by increasing access to computational resources and providing community platforms for sharing and publishing education and research materials. While science gateways represent a promising solution for computational reproducibility, common methods for providing users with their user environments on gateways present challenges which are difficult to overcome. This article presents EasyScienceGateway: a new framework for providing user environments on science gateways to resolve these challenges, provides the technical details on implementing the framework on a science gateway based on Jupyter Notebook, and discusses our experience applying the framework to the CyberGIS‐Jupyter and CyberGIS‐Jupyter for Water gateways.
