The Cyberinfrastructure Shell (CIShell) 0.2.1 and the Network Workbench Tool
0.2.0 has been released! In addition, the Network Workbench Community Wiki
is now open!
*About The Cyberinfrastructure Shell*
The Cyberinfrastructure Shell (CIShell) is an open source, community-driven
application/specification for the integration and utilization of datasets,
algorithms, tools, and computing resources. Algorithm integration support is
built in for Java and most other programming languages (algorithm
integration guide coming soon). Being Java based, it will run on almost all
platforms. The software and specification is released under an Apache
2.0License.
*About the Network Workbench Tool*
The Network Workbench (NWB) Tool is a large-scale network analysis, modeling
and visualization toolkit for biomedical, social science and physics
research. It is a standalone desktop application and can be run on multiple
platforms including Windows, Linux and Mac OSX. It is built on
Cyberinfrastructure
Shell <http://cishell.org/> framework to integrate various datasets and
algorithms. Although the framework is developed using JAVA, it can integrate
algorithms developed by other programing languages such as FORTRAN, C and
C++.
*About the NWB Community Wiki*
The Network Workbench Community Wiki is a place for users of the Network
Workbench Tool <https://nwb.slis.indiana.edu/community/?n=Main.NWBTool>, the
Cyberinfrastructure Shell <http://cishell.org/>, or any other CIShell based
program to get, upload, and request algorithms and datasets to be used in
their tool. This site is here so that the community can work together to
create a tool which will meet their needs and the needs of the scientific
community at large.
*New Features*
* Algorithm meta-data printing (useful for giving credit to algorithm
writers and others involved among other uses)
* More flexible static executable algorithm integration templates
* Many new algorithms and converters to use
* Bug fixes (Please submit any new bugs
here<https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=164787>
)
