Scientific Software Development

Starting a new scientific software project or working on existing code can be challenging because

  • writing code is not easy,
  • the code does not work as expected,
  • the code is hard to use or to maintain,
  • it is hard to have multiple people working on the same project.

Scientific Software Development service is here to help you with

  • end-to-end software engineering, i.e., from the functional requirements to the application ready to be used by researchers, for a new project or for an ongoing development,
  • code maintenance for an existing strategic project,
  • training and best practices (e.g., git, Docker, Python, R) for your team.

We can assist you in

  • design, modularisation, development, refactoring, testing, packaging and distribution of
  • libraries, command line applications, graphical user interface applications in
  • Python, R, Julia, C/C++ or Fortran.

Examples:

  • Refactor an initial Python code into a pip installable package
  • Refactor an initial R code into an R package (installable from CRAN)
