We invite everybody to join our open events:

  • 24.6. 2-4 pm discussion round RSE in the Humanities (UL6, 2070A)
  • 25.6. 3-4 pm talk on Static-first approach to web dev by Geoffroy Noël (hybrid mode) as part of our Talks Series Research Software Skills (see below)

If you are interested in joining our internal meetings, contact Jost Migenda (jost.migenda@kcl.ac.uk) and Carolin Odebrecht (iz-d2mcm.contact@hu-berlin.de).

Vortragsreihe Research Software Skills

Diese Reihe wird gemeinsam mit der King’s College London e-Research Group und dem King’s Digital Lab und dem IZ Digitalität und digitalen Methoden am Campus Mitte sowie Kooperationspartnern am HUB organisiert. Alle Veranstaltungen finden unter dem Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct statt. Wenn Sie eine Sitzung zu einem Thema leiten möchten, das wir noch nicht behandelt haben, einen CoC-Vorfall melden möchten oder andere Fragen zur Reihe haben, können Sie sich an Jost Migenda (jost.migenda@kcl.ac.uk) und Carolin Odebrecht (iz-d2mcm.contact@hu-berlin.de) wenden.

Seven Steps Towards Reproducible (Computational) Research Liz Ing-Simmons Reproducibility, the ability for others to consistently reach the same conclusions using the same methods and data, is essential for robust and trustworthy research. Reproducibility of computational research is a simple premise in theory, but can be difficult to achieve in practice. This talk will outline seven steps towards reproducible research, and discuss tools and approaches that researchers can use in each of these steps, including version control, automated testing, and workflow managers.

Managing Teams and Tasks using GitLab/GitHub Carolin Odebrecht How do we use management features such as boards, issues and labels to organise interdisciplinary teams aiming to collaboratively work on data or software using GitLab/GitHub? Using the management features needs to be aligned with the management approach and workflows of the team, which is often also influenced by discipline-specific requirements. We will discuss project management methods, GitLab/GitHub features to enhance collaboration in data/software projects and teams. Access: https://hu-berlin.zoom-x.de/j/66343315722

Static-first approach to web dev Geoffroy Noël King’s Digital Lab develops the digital resources at the heart of many research projects. Most of these resources are web-based and hosted on KCL infrastructure. Over the years our RSE team has gradually standardised its development stack. And recently we have transitioned our default architecture from monolithic client-server to static sites. In this talk we’ll explain what we mean by “static first”, why we took that direction and where we are on that path. Access: Access via MS Teams

Software Discovery, Publication and Citation Alexander Struck, Stephan Druskat Research software is (slowly) being recognized as a research output. Therefore, it should be published, cited and be findable for potential reuse. But the landscape, infrastructure and processes are rather heterogeneous. The two talks will introduce the topics, showcase state-of-the-art approaches and ongoing work to improve software publication, citation and discovery.

Make Your Python Code Faster Jost Migenda Do you often find yourself staring at your screen, waiting for your Python code to finish running? In this talk, I will show how to use Python’s built-in features more efficiently to speed up your code & make it more readable at the same time; how to use NumPy, Pandas and other software from the scientific Python ecosystem to parallelise computations and speed up workloads by an order of magnitude; and other tips and tricks.
