Virtual Appliances, Cloud Computing, and Reproducible Research

As science becomes increasingly computational, reproducibility has become increasingly difficult, perhaps surprisingly. In many contexts, virtualization and cloud computing can mitigate the issues involved without significant overhead to the researcher, enabling the next generation of rigorous and reproducible computational science.
