The ATLAS Publication Process Supported by Continuous Integration and Web Framework

The ATLAS Collaboration defines methods, establishes procedures, and organises advisory groups to manage the publication processes of scientific papers, conference papers, and public notes. All stages are managed through web systems, computing programs, and tools that are designed and developed by the Collaboration. The Phase 0 system was implemented using the FENCE framework and is integrated into the CERN GitLab software repository, to automatically configure workspaces where the analysis can be documented and used by the analysis team and managed by the conveners. Continuous integration is used to guide the writers in applying accurate format and valid statements when preparing papers to be submitted to scientific journals. Additional software assures the correctness of other aspects such as lists of collaboration authors, funding agencies, and foundations. The ATLAS Physics and Committees Office provides support to the researchers and facilitates each phase of the publication process, allowing authors to focus on the article's contents that describe the results of the ATLAS experiment.
