Research software is a key part of most research today. As University of Manchester Professor Carole Goble has said, \"software is the ubiquitous instrument of science.\" Creating and maintaining research software is a human effort, and as Yanina Bellina, rOpenSci Community Manager, has said, \"the work of the people who develop and maintain research software is often hidden and needs to be recognized.\"
Studies of researchers at leading UK universities [1] and of postdoctoral researchers in the US [2] have found that over 90% use research software, over 65% see research software as fundamental to their research, and 25-55% develop software as part of the research.
Research software, being ubiquitous, is difficult to concisely define. One recent attempt [3] says that research software:
Once research software is developed, however, users can find bugs, users can want new features, and the underlying hardware and software on which the software is built (e.g., libraries, OS) can change. The research software needs to be manually maintained in response to these issues. In other words, research software is not a one-time investment, but requires ongoing maintenance.
Research software sustainability can be defined as occurring when the resources (people, funding, etc.) to enable maintenance are gathered and applied.
This is different from challenges for publications and datasets because while research software can similarly be a research result and research product, it has properties that differ from papers and datasets, and needs different policies and funding models.
In response to these facts, the Research Software Alliance (ReSA) was founded in 2019 by the Australia Research Data Commons (ARDC), the Digital Research Alliance of Canada, the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA), the Netherlands eScience Center, and the Software Sustainability Institute (SSI) to help these organisations and other stakeholders collaborate on the advancement of the research software ecosystem.
ReSA''s vision is that research software and those who develop and maintain it are recognised and valued as fundamental and vital to research worldwide, while its mission is to advance the research software ecosystem by collaborating with key influencers and decision makers.
ReSA is a fiscally-sponsored project of Code for Science & Society, has part time staff members who include a Director, Dr Michelle Barker, and Community Managers located in Africa, Asia, Australia and Canada, and is led by a steering committee chaired by Daniel S. Katz, Chief Scientist at NCSA at the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign. ReSA has received support totalling USD$663,500 in cash, and USD$344,000 (details are publicly available) as in-kind contributions from its sponsors, Founding Members, and Organisational Members.
ReSA accomplishes work primarily through forums and task forces.
The ReSA Funders Forum, a collaboration of 30+ research software funding organisations, started in 2022. The organisations represented are currently about 2/3 government, 1/4 philanthropic, and 1/12 industry. Geographically, 41% are in Europe, 34% in North America, 17% in Australasia, and 4% each in African and South America.
The Funders Forum provides a formal mechanism for funders to share funding practices, address research software community challenges, facilitate networks and collaboration, and consider how to achieve long-term sustainability for research software. It meets monthly, with each meeting repeating twice in a day to allow those in different time zones to participate each time, and shifting in time from month to month to allow different sets of participants to form each time. Each meeting includes short presentations from funders on their new activities, and a discussion topic that is either led by ReSA or by a funder, such as on diversity, equity, and inclusion in research software, open source program offices, collaboration mechanisms, and landscape analysis. The Funder Forums also has working groups in which more focused activities can occur, such as planning for a multi-organisational funding call and defining policies around FAIR for research software.
Discussions in the ReSA steering committee and the funders forum led ReSA and the Netherlands eScience Center to co-convene the “International Funders Workshop: The Future of Research Software” in Amsterdam in November 2022, with representation from 45 funding organisations (those who provide monetary and/or in-kind support to research software and/or the people who develop and maintain it).

In this workshop, attendees discussed a draft of the Amsterdam Declaration on Funding Research Software Sustainability [4], which continues to be open for consultation.

ReSA hosts an occasional online community forum for the global research software community, as an opportunity for participants to meet and share information. Each call features a short talk and follow-up discussion, with the aim of facilitating community consideration about what’s needed next to address particular issues. The Community Forum is open to everyone. Meetings occur at alternating times to maximise attendance by participants in different time zones. Meeting topics have included:
In addition, ReSA participates in ad hoc activities that support its mission, such as sharing diversity, equity, and inclusion best practices at the 2022 Vive la difference - research software engineers hybrid workshop [5].

ReSA provides freely available resources that anyone can use to raise awareness of the importance of research software and a database or research software funding opportunities.
Anyone can sign up to receive updates on ReSA through its regular newsletter, provide information on new funding calls to our database, join task forces focused on specific activities, and join the ReSA Slack to share what is happening in their community.
Anyone who represents a funding organisation and wants to interact with other funders, can join the (free) Research Software Funders Forum.
Finally, ReSA is always looking for organisations who want to become recognised as organisational members in order to financially support its work.
In
November of 2022, the Research Software Alliance (ReSA) and the Netherlands
eScience Center organized a two-day international workshop titled \u201cThe
Future of Research Software.\u201d In the workshop, funding organizations
joined forces to explore how they could effectively contribute to making research
software sustainable. The workshop had many participants from all continents
and was a huge success. A tangible outcome was a draft of the \"Amsterdam

"abstract": "This Declaration on Funding Research Software Sustainability builds on actions undertaken by the Research Software Alliance (ReSA), research funding organisations, and the community surrounding it to develop awareness about the role funders can play in sustaining software in the longer term. It was initiated during an international workshop attended by representatives of funding organisations in Amsterdam on 8-9 November 2022, organised by ReSA and the Netherlands eScience Center. The Declaration is a first step towards formalising, on a global level, the basic principles and recommendations related to funding the sustainability of research software, including the people needed to achieve this goal. The aim of this Declaration is to raise awareness of the role of funding practice in the sustainability of research software, and to improve that practice. The Declaration includes a limited number of recommendations and an accompanying ADORE.software Toolkit. For the purposes of this declaration, research software is defined as “all forms of software that were created during the research process or for a research purpose”. A fuller description is included in the accompanying ADORE.software Toolkit",

"abstract": "The Research Software Alliance's (ReSA) mission is to bring research software communities together to collaborate on the advancement of research software. Given the ReSA mission, it is important to understand the landscape of communities involved with research software. In 2020, ReSA completed an initial exercise to scope the international research software community landscape. This work was reported by ReSA's Software Landscape Analysis task force via a blog post. The majority of the communities in the previous analysis represented the global north. To improve the extent of this landscape analysis, ReSA announced a paid opportunity for short-term contractors located in the global south to collect data on communities and funders in their region in early 2022. This document describes how the work was undertaken, a summary of findings, the gaps and opportunities perceived by the data collectors and some highlights. This work identified 126 organisations and communities and 62 funder bodies that support research software in the global south. Their main activities are connecting people, training, and networking, and support through research grants.

"abstract": "Research software is a fundamental and vital part of research worldwide, yet there remain significant challenges to software productivity, quality, reproducibility, and sustainability. Improving the practice of scholarship is a common goal of the open science, open source software and FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) communities, but improving the sharing of research software has not yet been a strong focus of the latter. To improve the FAIRness of research software, the FAIR for Research Software (FAIR4RS) Working Group has sought to understand how to apply the FAIR Guiding Principles for scientific data management and stewardship to research software, bringing together existing and new community efforts. Many of the FAIR Guiding Principles can be directly applied to research software by treating software and data as similar digital research objects. However, specific characteristics of software — such as its executability, composite nature, and continuous evolution and versioning — make it necessary to revise and extend the principles. This document presents the first version of the FAIR Principles for Research Software (FAIR4RS Principles). It is an outcome of the FAIR for Research Software Working Group (FAIR4RS WG). The FAIR for Research Software Working Group is jointly convened as an RDA Working Group, FORCE11 Working Group, and Research Software Alliance (ReSA) Task Force.",

The FAIR4RS Roadmap aims to make implementation of the FAIR4RS Principles a reality. Progress in this area will fast-track the adoption of the FAIR4RS Principles to support the significant cultural change needed across the research community to gain the benefits of recognition of a wider range of research outputs.

"abstract": "The Research Software Alliance (ReSA)’s mission is to bring research software communities together to collaborate on the advancement of research software. ReSA has formed taskforces and one of them revolves around a software landscape analysis aiming to answer the question \"How can we identify the different communities and topics of interest for the research software community (e.g., preservation, RSEs, citation, productivity, sustainability)?\" Here we include text describing the work of the taskforce to date (see 2020-03-11-ReSA-landscape.md), as well as plans for the future, and an invitation to readers to contribute to the ReSA list of research software communities. We are a;sp including the current version of the list in a CSV file (see 2020-03-11-ReSA-landscape.csv ), and we welcome contributions on the live spreadsheet that can be found via this link.",
