Outward facing software website - what sorts of things do we want to aggregate?
- do we need an independent .org site?
- YES!
- opensciencetoolkits.org
- nationalsciencesoftware
- sciencesoftwarecommunity.org
- sciencesoftwarecollaboratory.org
- scientificsoftware.org
- Available domain names -- please give us your feedback!
- scientificsoftwaresystems.org
- openscientificsoftware.org
- academicscientificsoftware.org
- softwareforscience.org
- sciencesoftware.org
- software4science.org
- mailing list -
- start at ncsa, then .org
-
- what else?
- monthly webinar talks -
- licenses
- best practices
- microtalks followed by discussion (5-10 minutes) -
- figure technology, get talks set up in advance
- advertise, recruit speakers
- find a volunteer for organizing
- ideas
- openMRS - open medical record systems
- succeeded in open source - practices in how they acomplished
- 5 short presentations - say on
- build and test?
- verification?
- licensing?
- tools - eg, tools Todd Tannebaum suggested that are useful in Condor
- workflow management - several open workflow managers - who is working with them, experience, etc
- integration experiences
- software engineering
- consortiums -how (developers, users) deal with consortiums, governance models
- distributing sw as vm images -
- education -
- steve gordon, OSC, heading up xsede education could give a talk on
- training -
- xsede training - on how to interact, assist with training
- Suresh/Marlon on Science Gateways, how communities come together, mechanisms for support
- John Cazes - community codes, how we work with people
- Mark Fahey - collaborative support
- Marlon: presentation on xsede technology insertion service, if you have gone through the process, what do you need to do - how can push back to TIS on what we'd like for them to do -
- Marlon: topic on EOT section on outreach on underrepresented groups, would like discussion on what people are doing, Richard Tapia or SURA contact, to join/lead this discussion -
- software sustainability institute /UK - Edinburgh -
- software taskforce - would be good to have someone from that group talk about these recommendations -
- Valerie Taylor
- David Keyes
- what I hate - things that make my life miserable/less pleasant -
- within scope of software...
- not necessarily deep -
- eg - time to get allocation
-
- opportunities for cross-project-hackathons
- postdoc/student exchanges between groups
- tutorials - in basic scientific computing topics -
- could brainstorm these topics on this site -
- XSEDE CI fellows, trying to figure out how to execute this - have someone go on sabbatical to work on CI project - may be useful way to connect XSEDE with SI2 projects -
- should be announced soon, in final reviews now -
- work on something "not your own project"
- campus champions, get them up to speed on advanced support
- SI2 could offer some of the tools, this could be a cooperative venture
- Useful to have screen capturing/introductory tutorial - maybe tutorial, tools to do this -
- many of our software target HPC, how do you leverage potential of XSEDE resources - this would be useful to increase performance of the software -
- bring people folks in from xsede to share experience
- system sw tuned for hardware platform -
-
- google summer of code -
- (links to)
- software?
- documentation?
- licenses
- sw engineering practices
- table of software - software, documentation, licensing, with a hatch mark - for existence (and a link?)
- divide by discipline
- figure out guidance on suitability of software, or applicability of software
- level of experience /recommended use - eg, suitable for teaching undergraduates?
- things to put in the .org
- web server
- wiki
- mediawiki?
- confluence?
- hashtag
- facebook account -
- keep this small/focused -
- what about putting into wikipedia, and actually have we maintain the page -
- taxonomy -
- this page should represent another level of collaboration - community on how they map together, this may be an extra reason for our own domain name/wiki/etc -
- want to avoid having 6 places to update things -
-
Community issues - revisit town hall and initial community discussion -
Metrics - what do we think it is important
- Guidance for the community
- Marlon: one good metric - how many other SI2 projects or closely related NSF projects are you collaborating with to the point where you give them commit access to your (svn, cvs, github,...)
- measuring amount of connectivity of your project with this community, projects within this community
- head counts - get an idea of how big the development community is, how big the user community is -
- how many groups have code developments
- how many licenses
- how many users
- how many scientists use scientific sw on their research
- how many citations back to the original paper for a particular code
- need a way to go beyond this not just counting, but measure their increase - platform for people to increase their impact
- esp when encouraging cross-collaboration/multi-disciplinary collaborations
- number of new users/year
- # of lines of code removed
- number of phd thesis that used their sw -
- usage satisfaction - qualitative -
- # of times the sw is mentioned in (nsf, nih, ...) proposals
- metrics for code test suite coverage -
- how complex is your code? (entangled) -
- # of software that interfaces with your code
- eg GAMESS - interfacing with MD codes -
- both input files and APIs
-
- # of institutions that use your code for their curriculum
- performance changes directly attributable to NSF funding
- # of SUs used on XSEDE resource
- front covers of magazines
- mailing lists, # of items put on mailing lists -
- what percent of items on mailing lists are from people funded by NSF - to show engagement with the user community
- quantify extent code is used as a benchmark
- # of developers graduated from project - demonstrates continuity/sustainability if you can survive lots of turnover
- # of releases made
- documentation - and length of documentation
- bugs filed, bugs fixed
- code churn -
- # of training events
- attendance of training events
- education modules produced
- courses using education modules
- science enabled - in citations
- tracking papers published - h-index -
- worldwide sw downloads
