Mageia scientific project

This SIG aims at improving the support of scientific programs in Mageia.

On this page we collect a list of scientific packages that can be imported in Mageia, or that are already in.

The project could grow as follows:

  • add missing scientific programs
  • group scientific programs in specialized meta-packages (such as math, chemical, physics, etc)
  • build one (or more) live cd -or improve draklive specs to make it buildable- to give to students and scientists.

People

Packagers

  • malo - CS tools (theorem provers, Programming language research tools, machine learning)
  • grenoya - scientific calculus (scilab, octave), file format (hdf), librairies (suitesparce)
