CECAM Tutorial - development and maintenance of atomic-scale software
Training
| Starting date | 21 June 2010 |
| Ending date | 25 June 2010 |
This workshop will take place at Zaragoza University, Spain from June 21 to June 25, 2010.
The goal of the tutorial will be to improve the ability of the participants to produce software that will have a long life cycle, that is adequate for group software development, that is re-usable, that can better communicate with other atomic-scale software, that executes correctly and is portable, with an acceptable execution speed.
During the last decade, the standard of writing of such software has been steadily improving (also due to CECAM efforts), but it is felt that students and post-docs, with a physicist formation, who would like to start software development, while not having formally trained in software engineering, will benefit a lot from the proposed tutorial, especially tuned for atomic-scale software, and focusing on immediately useful concepts and tools.
Deadline for application: 1 April 2010 - Workshop details at http://www.cecam.org/workshop-467.html
