Applicability study of the PRIMAD model to LIGO gravitational wave search workflows

The PRIMAD model with its six components (i.e., Platform, Research Objective, Implementation, Methods, Actors, and Data), provides an abstract taxonomy to represent computational experiments and enforce reproducibility by design. In this paper, we assess the model applicability to a set of Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) workflows from literature sources (i.e., published papers). Our work outlines potentials and limits of the model in terms of its abstraction levels and application process.
