In August, GitHub announced software citation support in GitHub repositories. Discover how Rob Haines, Head of Research IT, played an instrumental role in making this happen.

Two of our Research Software Engineers have been working with the University eScience Lab on a BioExcel project to develop Conda packages for GROMACS making it easier for researchers to set up and run the software and to increase its reproducibility from computational workflow systems.

Find out how our Research Software Engineers have been working with researchers from Computer Science to bring coding to the next generation.

If you have ever taken advantage of the help, support and code available from CoSeC, you might be eligible to take part in their annual competition.

MATLAB Online is now available to University staff and students and provides an alternative for occasional use or use on a fairly low powered laptop or tablet computer

Learn more about using Github repositories for starting new projects from two of our Research Software Engineers Douglas Lowe and Robin Long.

Git is becoming a common tool, widely used for organising code, recording developments, etc. Often, we want to reuse code from one project for another, or to have a standard layout or template that can be used for similar projects. Here Robin Long and Douglas Lowe, from the RSE team, will detail the features available in git and github for making your life easier with this.

The University has purchased a license to allow the download and install of the full suite of MATLAB products on to both staff and students’ own, or University provided, computers.

The University OriginPro licence has recently been renewed.

A minisymposterium (topical poster group) on “Software Productivity and Sustainability for CSE” for the SIAM CSE21 conference, is looking for poster contributions for this general topic to complement a range of minisymposia at the event.

We are planning to change the ABAQUS licence allowing use remotely and on personal machines.
