The term “Research software” is also defined somewhat differently within the community.
Therefore, to avoid ambiguities, we list the ones we use here:\\
\textbf{Software:}\\
Source code, documentation, tests, executables and all other artifacts that are created by humans during the development process that are necessary to understand its purpose.\\
Source code, documentation, tests, executables
and all other artefacts that are created during the development process
that are necessary to understand its purpose.\\
\textbf{Research software:}\\
Foundational algorithms, the software itself, as well as scripts and computational workflows that were created
during the research process or for a research purpose, across all domains of research.
This definition is broader than in~\autocite{FAIR4RS} and is the outcome of a recent discussion in~\autocite{Gruenpeter2021}.\\
\textbf{Research software engineers:}\\
People who create or improve research software and/or the structures that it interacts with in the computational ecosystem of research domains.
People who
create or improve research software and/or the structures that the software interacts with
in the computational environment of a research domain.
They are highly skilled team members who may also choose to conduct their own research as part of their role.
However, we also recognise RSEs who have chosen to focus on a technical role as an alternative to a traditional research role.\\
