[Host10] Upcoming webinar: Bringing Best Practices to a Long-Lived Production Code

[IDEAS Project Outreach Lead]

The next webinar in the HPC Best Practices (https://ideas-productivity.us16.list-manage.com/track/click?u=5438ff2caf2456f6ec49ebfbf&id=066338ae29&e=b9db70c2a7) series is:
Bringing Best Practices to a Long-Lived Production Code
1:00-2:00 ET
Wednesday January 17, 2018
Presenter: Charles R. Ferenbaugh, LANL
Description: How can you introduce best software practices to a long-lived scientific production code, with a significant user base, that has “gotten along fine” for years doing things its own way? Often developers in such projects must struggle with overly complex code, inadequate documentation, little or no software process, and a “just write the code fast” culture; these are challenges to software quality that are generally not issues for new projects. In this presentation we’ll discuss some of the peculiar problems faced by long-lived scientific codes, and present a case study of how we’re dealing with these issues at LANL in the xRage radiation-hydrodynamics simulation code.
Participation is free, but registration is required.
