"A wavelet tour of signal processing"
by Stéphane G. Mallat


page 18:


"Part of the scientific know-how involved includes appropriate
parameter settings that lead to good results on real datasets.

"The reproducibility of experiments thus requires having the
 complete software and full source code for inspection,
 modification and application under varied parameter settings."

...

"Donoho has advocated the reproducibility of algorithms in
wavelet signal processing,....., He summarizes Claerbout's
insight in a Slogan:

     "An article about computational science in a
      scientific publication is not the scholarship itself,
      it is merely advertisement of the scholarship.
      The actual scholarship is the complete software
      environment and the complete set of instructions
      which generates the figures."

"Following this perspective, all wavelet and time-frequency
tools presented in this book are available in WaveLab.
The figures can be reproduced as demos and the source
code is available. "
