This page describes our reproducibility requirements for ''all'' projects and theses supervised by someone from our group.

= Access to our SVN and our file system =

Right after the very first meeting with your supervisor you will be assigned the following. If for some reason, this does not happen within a day, you should send an email to your supervisor ''and'' our system adminstrator [[https://ad.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/staff/dal-ri|Frank Dal-Ri]].

<p style="color: darkblue">
1. A subfolder in our SVN with URL https://ad-svn.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/student-[projects|theses]/<firstname>-<lastname>. Authentication works via your RZ Account (initials + number).<br/>
2. The name of one of our machines, on which you can work. Authentication works via your Informatik Account (first seven letters of your family name + first leter of your given name).<br/>
3. On this machine, two folders, where <username> is the user name from your Informatik Account (see 2):<br/>
3.1 ''/local/data/<username>'' : A directory for large datasets on a local disk of the machine which you have been assigned. The local disks are fast, so this is great for IO-heavy code (for example, a search engine which frequently reads large segments of data from disk). This directory will be deleted, once you have given your presentation and received your grade.<br/>
3.2 ''/nfs/students/<username>''  A directory for large datasets on our network file system (NFS). Access to these files can be (and often is) significantly slower, because data packets are routed via the network. However, this directory will be kept after you have given your presentation and received your grade. It should contain a tidied up version of all your data that is worth preserving and was too large to be uploaded to our SVN (see item 1).<br/>
}}}

= Location of your code and small datasets =

Your complete code should be in our SVN. Small datasets (of total size less than, say, 500 MB) should also be in our SVN. Large datasets should be in /nfs/students/<username>


There should be a ''README.txt'' or ''README.md'' in each directory and sub-directory, briefly explaining the contents of the respective directory.
