	abstract = {Reproducible workflow solutions commonly use high-level technologies that
were popular when they were created, providing an immediate solution which is
unlikely to be sustainable in the long term. We therefore introduce a set of
criteria to address this problem and demonstrate their practicality and
implementation. The criteria have been tested in several research publications
and can be summarized as: completeness (no dependency beyond a POSIX-compatible
operating system, no administrator privileges, no network connection and
storage primarily in plain text); modular design; minimal complexity;
scalability; verifiable inputs and outputs; temporal provenance; linking
analysis with narrative; and free-and-open-source software. As a proof of
concept, we have implemented "Maneage", a solution which stores the project in
machine-actionable and human-readable plain-text, enables version-control,
cheap archiving, automatic parsing to extract data provenance, and
peer-reviewable verification. We show that requiring longevity of a
reproducible workflow solution is realistic, without sacrificing immediate or
short-term reproducibility and discuss the benefits of the criteria for
scientific progress. This paper has itself been written in Maneage, with
snapshot 1637cce.},
