Amen! I work in electric utility research. Pretty much every paper gives some simulation results. Getting the source? The only option is emailing and hoping the researchers respond, want to share, and have code that runs on something other than laptop of the student that built it. I haven't ever succeeded in getting working source code. There are many simple improvements that could be done. Just a github repo for each paper would be a monumental step forward. Installation instructions that have been tested and proven to work would be valuable. And then good coding practices, smart reuse of existing packages and integration with other projects would be beyond awesome (and pretty hard).
