Training Event

training ideas IDEAS Productivity Agile Project Management Kanban

The IDEAS Productivity project, in partnership with the DOE Computing Facilities of the ALCF, OLCF, and NERSC and the DOE Exascale Computing Project (ECP) has resumed the webinar series on Best Practices for HPC Software Developers, which we began in 2016.

As part of this series, we offer one-hour webinars on topics in scientific software development and high-performance computing, approximately once a month. The next webinar in the series is titled “Software Sustainability – lessons learned from different disciplines”, and will be presented by Neil Chue Hong of the Software Sustainability Institute (University of Edinburgh). The webinar will take place on Wednesday, August 21, 2018 at 12:00 pm ET.

Abstract:

How do you make software sustainable? How much is it about process and how much about practice? Does it vary between countries or disciplines? In this webinar, I’ll present what the UK’s Software Sustainability Institute has learned from 8 years of work in this area including efforts around understanding the scale of software use in research, raising the profile of software as a key part of the research ecosystem, and how we can enable researchers and developers to build better software.

Presenter

Neil Chue Hong is the founding Director and Principal Investigator of the Software Sustainability Institute, and is based at the University of Edinburgh. He enables research software users and developers to drive the continued improvement and impact of research software. He is the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Open Research Software, the past Advisory Council chair of the Software Carpentry Foundation, co-editor of “Software Engineering for Science”, co-author of “Best Practices for Scientific Computing” and “An Open Science Peer Review Oath”, and chair of the EPSRC Strategic Advisory Team on e-Infrastructure. His current research interests include barriers and incentives in research software ecosystems and the role of software as a research object.

BlueJeans Connection Information

The meeting will be hosted via BlueJeans. We will open the BlueJeans meeting at least 20 minutes prior to the start of the webinar. I recommend you connect as early as possible to ensure you do not encounter technical difficulties in seeing and/or hearing the presentation. Once the presentation begins, it will be difficult to provide technical assistance.
