DescriptionEfforts such as Artifact Evaluation (AE) have been growing, gradually making software evaluation an integral part of scientific publication. In this paper, we describe how Occam can help to mitigate some of the challenges faced by both authors and reviewers. For authors, Occam provides the means to package their artifacts with enough detail to be used within experiments that can be easily repeated. For the reviewers, Occam provides the means to thoroughly evaluate artifacts by: allowing them to repeat the author's experiments; providing the ability to modify inputs, parameters, and software to run different experiments.
