Jupyter Notebooks and Academic Publication

Fernando Pérez, UC Berkeley
Guido van Rossum, Dropbox

Jupyter Notebooks are a emerging way to express and present research results. Notebooks are a kind of IDE Framework for doing science, one which is better suited to presenting algorithms and data than the ad hoc frameworks currently used.

The creator of Jupyter Notebooks (Fernando) and the creator of the Pythons language (Guido) will help you understand why you should use Jupyter Notebooks for your next paper.
