Software is an essential component of modern research, and in many cases we need to develop our own software for a specific task. Software engineering is more than just “programming”, but includes elements of planning, communication, collaboration and verification. These “Research Software Engineering” seminars address these issues in a friendly, informal atmosphere. The intended audience includes research students and staff, especially with an interest in writing software, but all are welcome to attend.
