Note

Set-up repository, read article and proposed scope. Total time used: 0h 47m (2.0%)

Previously: Contacted the authors

Contacted Ivan Hernandez over LinkedIn, who kindly add an MIT license to the repository to enable reuse.

14.38-14.52: Set-up repository

  • Created repository from template
  • Set up environment
  • Modified template files:
    • README.md
    • quarto site index.qmd
    • CITATION.cff
    • _quarto.yml
  • Set up site on GitHub pages (quarto publish gh-pages)

14.57-14.58: Upload code to repository

The code is available at https://github.com/ivihernandez/staff-allocation/tree/master. It is licensed under an MIT license.

15.00-15.08: Upload journal article and artefacts

The published article with the journal “Computers & Industrial Engineering” at https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0360835215000728 does not appear to have the rights to share the full article or reuse images.

The abstract is shared at ACM Digital Library and the Stevens Institute but both link to the journal website, with neither containing a green open-access version.

15.10-15.34: Read the article and defined scope

Read the article and identified what I think the scope of the reproduction to be. Outlined this on the scope quarto page then forwarded to Tom for review.
