Debian Science generic tools for scientific work

This task lists Debian Science some packages which are providing some generic tools for sciences and to enhance scientific work.

Note that there is no according metapackage created since the packages might be to different to make sense to install all on one machine.

Description

For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:

If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for Debian Science to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to send a description of that project to the Debian Science mailing list

HDF5 pour Python (h5py) est une interface Python généraliste pour la bibliothèque Hierarchical Data Format, version 5. HDF5 est une bibliothèque polyvalente, scientifiquement mature, conçue pour un stockage rapide et flexible d'énormes quantités de données.

Du point de vue d'un programmeur Python, HDF5 offre une manière robuste de stocker des données, organisées par nom sous forme arborescente. Des bases de données peuvent être créées (baies de stockage) de centaines de gigaoctets et effectuer des accès E/S aléatoires dans les sections désirées. Les jeux de données sont organisés dans une hiérarchie de type système de fichiers en utilisant des conteneurs appelés « groupes », et auxquels l’accès se fait en utilisant la syntaxe traditionnelle POSIX /chemin/vers/ressource.

H5py fournit une interface simple, robuste en lecture/écriture, pour les données HDF5 à partir de Python. Les concepts existants de Python et Numpy sont utilisés pour l'interface ; par exemple, les jeux de données sur le disque sont représentés par une classe mandataire qui gère le transfert de sous-ensembles (slicing) et qui possède les attributs dtype et shape. Les groupes HDF5 sont présentés en utilisant la métaphore d'un dictionnaire, indexés par nom.

Ce paquet est un paquet simple de dépendance qui dépend de la construction série ou MPI de h5py et fournit les fichiers de test de données.

pybind11 is a lightweight header library that exposes C++ types in Python and vice versa, mainly to create Python bindings of existing C++ code. Its goals and syntax are similar to the excellent Boost.Python library by David Abrahams: to minimize boilerplate code in traditional extension modules by inferring type information using compile-time introspection.

This package provides pybind11 for Python 3.

ReproZip is a tool aimed at simplifying the process of creating reproducible experiments from command-line executions, a frequently-used common denominator in computational science.

It tracks operating system calls and creates a package that contains all the binaries, files and dependencies required to run a given command on the author’s computational environment (packing step). A reviewer can then extract the experiment in his environment to reproduce the results (unpacking step).

This package provides the ReproZip unpacker.

The MapReduce-MPI (MR-MPI) library is open-source software that implements the MapReduce operation popularized by Google on top of standard MPI message passing.

The MR-MPI library is written in C++ and is callable from hi-level languages such as C++, C, Fortran. A Python wrapper is also included, so MapReduce programs can be written in Python, including map() and reduce() user callback methods. A hi-level scripting interface to the MR-MPI library, called OINK, is also included which can be used to develop and chain MapReduce algorithms together in scripts with commands that simplify data management tasks. OINK has its own manual and doc pages.

This package contains development files needed to build MapReduce-MPI applications.

L’utilisation d’une souris ou d’une boule de commande est laborieuse pour les applications en 3D : il manque une dimension, et plus encore si une distinction doit être faite entre l’inclinaison et le déplacement ou la réalisation des deux opérations en même temps, comme ce qui est fait intuitivement avec une tasse de café. 3Dconnexion produit des périphériques de saisie à six degrés de liberté, vendus comme « space navigator », « space pilot », « space traveller », « space mouse », etc., et l’acquisition d’un de ces produits conduit vraisemblablement à l’abandon de la souris et à regretter tout le temps perdu à positionner des objets en CAD/CAM ou ailleurs.

Spacenavd est un logiciel ouvert de remplacement de pilote en espace utilisateur (démon) pour ces périphériques. Il est compatible avec le démon propriétaire original 3dxsrv fourni par 3Dconnexion, et fonctionne parfaitement avec n’importe quel programme écrit pour le pilote de 3Dconnexion. Il propose aussi une autre méthode d’accès au périphérique à l’aide d’un protocole nouveau non dépendant de X11.

skinedit is the skin editor that accompanies TiEmu, the Texas Instruments calculators emulator. By using a different skin, you change the appearance of the emulator.

skinedit can handle VTi (another emulator, running on Windows) skins too, allowing you to convert the skins between the VTi formats and the TiEmu format.

Packaging has started and developers might try the packaging code in VCS

Pydap is an implementation of the Opendap/DODS protocol, written from scratch. You can use Pydap to access scientific data on the internet without having to download it; instead, you work with special array and iterable objects that download data on-the-fly as necessary, saving bandwidth and time. The module also comes with a robust-but-lightweight Opendap server, implemented as a WSGI application.

This package provides the modules for Python 3.
