Introduction
============
Collective Knowledge is our "swiss knife" for open, collaborative and reproducible experimentation.
CK is a small, portable and customizable research SDK to
* share artifacts as reusable and indexable Python components with unified JSON API and meta information (programs, benchmarks, data sets, tools, predictive models, etc) - see [Artifact Evaluation website](http://ctuning.org/ae/submission.html);
* automate detection or installation of all software dependencies on Linux, Windows, MacOS, Android while enabling co-existence of different versions (compilers, benchmarks, libraries, tools) for a given experimental workflow across diverse Linux, Windows and Android based platforms via [CK cross-platform customizable package and environment manager](https://github.com/ctuning/ck/wiki/Portable-workflows);
* quickly prototype experimental workflows from shared components (such as customizable and multi-objective autotuning for DSL, OpenCL, CUDA, MPI, OpenMP and compiler flags) across diverse hardware and software ([CK repo](https://github.com/ctuning/ck-autotuning));
* crowdsource experiments across diverse hardware and workloads provided by volunteers and validate ideas or report unexpected behavior and bugs ([CK repo](https://github.com/ctuning/ck-crowdtuning));
* reuse and collaborative improve JSON description of all existing platforms from IoT to supercomputers ([CK repo](https://github.com/ctuning/ck-crowdtuning-platforms));
* abstract access to continuously evolving software and hardware stack ([CK repo](https://github.com/ctuning/ck-env));
* automate, reproduce and crowdsource empirical experiments using CK JSON-based web services ([live repo](http://cKnowledge.org/repo));
* unify access to predictive analytics (scikit-learn, R, DNN, etc) via unified JSON API and CK web services ([CK repo](https://github.com/ctuning/ck-analytics));
* enable reproducible and interactive articles ([CK repo](https://github.com/ctuning/ck-web)).
We use CK to gradually develop common API and meta for reproducible computer systems research together with the community and [ACM](https://dl.acm.org/docs/reproducibility.cfm)!

Acknowledgments
===============
CK development is coordinated by the [cTuning foundation](http://cTuning.org) (non-profit research organization)
and [dividiti](http://dividiti.com). We would like to thank the [EU TETRACOM 609491 Coordination Action](http://tetracom.eu)
for initial funding, Microsoft for sponsoring hosting of a CK public
repository in the Azure cloud, and all our partners for continuing support.
We are also extremely grateful to all volunteers for their valuable feedback and contributions.
Minimal installation
====================
The minimal installation requires:
* Python 2.7 or 3.3+ (limitation is mainly due to unitests)
* Python PIP (if you would like to install CK via PIP)
* Git command line client.
On Ubuntu, you can install these dependencies via
```
$ apt-get install -y python python-pip git
```
On Windows, you can download and install these tools from the following sites:
* Git: https://git-for-windows.github.io
* Minimal Python: https://www.python.org/downloads/windows
* Anaconda scientific Python with all packages: https://www.continuum.io/downloads#_windows
You can now install stable CK version via PIP simply as following
(you may need to prefix it with "sudo" on Linux):
```
$ pip install ck
```
Alternatively, you can install development CK version in your local user space
via GIT as following:
```
$ git clone https://github.com/ctuning/ck.git ck
```
and then add CK to PATH on Linux as following:
```
$ export PATH=$PWD/ck/bin:$PATH
```
or on Windows as following:
```
$ set PATH={CURRENT PATH}\ck\bin;%PATH%
```
Further installation details can be found [here](https://github.com/ctuning/ck/wiki/Getting-started-guide#Quick_CK_installation).
Trying CK using Docker image
============================
If you would like to try CK without installing it,
you can run the following Docker image:
```
$ docker run -it ctuning/ck
```
Also note that we added Docker automation to CK
(to help evaluate artifacts at the conferences, share interactive
and reproducible articles or crowdsource experiments for example).
Please check 'ck-docker' repository at GitHub:
```
$ ck show repo:ck-docker
```
You can download and view one of our CK-based interactive and reproducible articles as following:
```
$ ck pull repo:ck-docker
$ ck run docker:ck-interactive-article --browser (--sudo)
```
See the list of other CK-related Docker images [here](https://hub.docker.com/u/ctuning).
However note that the main idea behind CK is to be able to rebuild user experimental workflows
natively, take advantage of the latest software environment and hardware,
and enable open research via collaborative reuse and agile improvement
of all shared artifacts and workflows.
