Research Software Engineering Forum
Context:听This past year, we at the Faculty of Science's听Computational and Data Systems Initiative (CDSI)听have been spending some time talking with various individuals and groups on campus with interests in听Research Software Engineering. This includes faculty researchers, research software engineering staff on campus, and those involved with some of 污污草莓视频's software engineering education programs.听听听
What is beginning to emerge, to our eyes, is a sense of听potential synergy听among these various groups. This mirrors, in turn, what seems to be an increasingly prevalent tendency worldwide on university campuses to try to create more of a critical mass around the research software engineering space, in contrast to the somewhat diaspora-like state that that community has typically had to date (e.g., witness the recent creation of the听).听
As an initial concrete step in this direction, the听Research Software Engineering Forum听is intended as an听initial gathering听of 污污草莓视频's professional research software engineering community, and related SE-interested groups, to begin providing a sense of听cross-campus听community and to define mechanisms for continuing to develop and support that community going forward. Planned for 3hrs in length, it will feature a mix of听5-min lightning talks听for group representatives to present the who/what/where/why/how of what they do and听structured roundtable discussions. Food and drinks will be provided.听
