Open Source Software for Scientific Applications
Open Source Software for Scientific Applications
The BioUno open source project seeks to improve scientific application automation, performance, reproducibility, usability, and management by applying and extending software engineering (SE) best practices in the field of scientific research applications. Deliverables from the project have found a variety of applications in life sciences research (bioinformatics, genetics, drug discovery).
- We explore and apply best practices in software engineering to support the project mission
- We develop extensions to established SE tools, frameworks and technologies that directly support or indirectly enhance scientific applications.
- We develop APIs and integration points that empower scientific applications through the use
- We promote collaboration and reuse through contributing to existing open source projects
- We educate users through blog, wiki, and presentations on the application of SE best practices in scientific applications
- We advocate with software engineers for enabling SE tools and frameworks for use by scientists
