An Introduction to Open Source Software
LLNL developers create and evolve software on a daily basis. Although some of this software is classified or controlled, much of the code developed at LLNL can benefit a range of users and applications outside the Lab. An increasingly vital form of technology transfer occurs through the release of open source software (OSS), wherein the source code is made freely available to the public for inspection, modification, and enhancement. The Lab’s OSS addresses several key HPC and non-HPC needs across multiple operating systems and programming languages. Computer engineer Ian Lee describes the Lab’s OSS community, activities, and policies. This talk was recorded for the 2020 LLNL Computing Virtual Expo.
