CEDA and Tessella collaboration brings Earth observation data to life

Tuesday, November 29th, 2011

When CEDA (Centre for Environmental Data Archival) needed a way to enable scientists around the world to visualise and animate its extensive Earth observation dataset and climate simulation models, it called on Tessella’s scientific software and data analysis expertise. The resulting web based service was delivered against tight deadlines to coincide with the launch of [...]

Webinar – Software for Science Research

Monday, October 18th, 2010

In the 60 years since the invention of the digital computer, millions of lines of code have been developed to support scientific research. Although an increasingly important part of almost all research projects, most research software is barely fit for purpose compared to equivalent systems in the commercial world. The code is hard to understand [...]

The Engineer: ITER ‘needs to do better’ to benefit from next build phase

UK industry has won more than £100m worth of contracts so far from the construction of the ITER fusion project in France but needs to do better if it is to benefit from the next construction phase, worth up to €2bn (£1.7bn)…read more

Fusion Engineering and Design: The JET Intershot Analysis: Current infrastructure and future plans

Authors: R. Layne, N. Cook, D. Harting, D.C. McDonald, C. Tidy, JET EFDA contributors The JET Intershot Analysis (Chain1) generates processed data following a pulse. Maintaining the pulse repetition rate is one of JET’s key success factors, so performance of Chain1 is crucial. This paper will describe JET’s experience of managing Chain1, including a description [...]
