Sci-Tech Special Interest Group

Mission

The purpose of the Fedora Sci-Tech SIG is to improve the number and quality of packages available for scientific and technical users.

Packagers/Reviewers/People interested

Documentation

UsingMultipleMPIs - How to use lam and openmpi on the same system.

Packages awaiting review

gromacs - Molecular dynamics package #464424
MPICH2: #171993
ROOT - High energy physics data analysis package #451744
Trilinos - Collection of packages that support parallel linear algebra computations, solution of linear, non-linear and eigen systems of equations and related capabilities. #453703
R2spec - Python script to generate spec file for R librarie #458685

Potential Packages

Asana Math font
BkChem - A free chemical drawing program, a potential XDrawChem successor
GAP - Computer algebra system - JasonTibbitts has a working and up-to-date GAP package, but it needs significant cleanup before it has a chance of passing review.
Ideas of packages for bioinformatics base on bio-linux.
ITK - Insight Segmentation and Registration Toolkit - software system to support the Visible Human Project
SAGE Mathematica-like open source mathematics software ( SAGE packaging discussion )

List of scientific/engineering packages

List of applications we will NOT package

Non-commercial clauses in applications licenses render them invalid for inclusion into Fedora Package Collection. Such apps are not Free and open source software and violates Clause 6 of the OSI definition. See an example of such clause:

This software may be copied and distributed for educational, research, and not
for profit purposes provided that this copyright and statement are included in
all such copies.  Other copyrights may also apply.

Name	Description	Why it won't be packaged
Scilab	Scilab is a numerical computational package developed by INRIA and ENPC in France.	Non-Free license
foo	bar app	patented

Ideas/Proposals

SAGE packaging discussion
MPI work:
Use environment-modules to improve the "MPI alternatives" situation -- please see the proposal at the bottom of EdHill
