[EN] Going Large - CERN VM/VMFS - Laura Promberger, Jakob Blomer
Season 8 · Episode 3
lundi 16 septembre 2024 • Duration 32:59
ENGLISH EDITION: There are a lot of "large" things at CERN, including the amount of data produced and the software needed to manage and analyse them. In this episode I talk to Laura Promberger and Jakob Blomer from the CERN virtual machine/file system VM/VMFS project about how this set of tools is helping researchers.
And not just physicists, as CERN VM/VMFS is also used in other areas of the high performance computing community.

ByteSized: Code Reviews with GitHub
jeudi 17 novembre 2022 • Duration 19:36
In this episode of ByteSized we look at code reviews and GitHub.
Code reviews have a long tradition (see the link to Michael Fagan's paper from 1976 below).
Modern code management tools like GitHub, GitLab and others provide features to integrate code reviews with your overall development and deployment workflow.
In this episode we look specifically at GitHub and how you can use the mechanism of 'pull requests' to start a conversation and review with your colleagues.
In my conversation with Thibault Lestang from Imperial, we discuss what to look out for when doing a code review with your colleagues. And the fact that reviews are still useful, even if you are not using Github.

- https://git-scm.com/ The GIT versioning system book. Has a chapter on branching

Byte-sized RSE is presented in collaboration with the UNIVERSE-HPC project.

Event organisation with the Software Sustainability Institute
mercredi 2 novembre 2022 • Duration 24:40
In this episode we speak to Shoaib Sufi and Rachael Ainsworth from the Software Sustainability Institute’s Community team about their Event Organisation Guide and some upcoming SSI events.
The Event Organisation Guide brings together years of experience of the SSI in organising events. It covers different stages of the event organisation process from idea through feasibility, sign off, running your event project and closing down. The guide can be tailored to your needs, giving hints and tips on varied subjects such as venue, catering, budget, agenda, publicity and more.
- Read the Event Organisation Guide on Read the Docs.
- If you’d like to raise any issues, offer suggestions or get involved, you can use the GitHub project associated with the guide.
- Read how SSI Communications Manager Selina Aragon used the guide to plan the first Research Software Camp in this blog post and find out more about our upcoming Research Software Camp on supporting mental health in research.
- Read Shoaib’s blog post on Behind the scenes: SSI Event Organisation Guide which explores the how and why of the guide.
- Find out more about Collaborations Workshop 2023 (CW23).
