This year’s annual Scientific Computing with Python conference, SciPy2014, was held in Austin ,TX, July 6-12 2014. This conference “… allows participants from academic, commercial, and governmental organizations to showcase their latest Scientific Python projects, learn from skilled users and developers, and collaborate on code development.”
As is customary, there were some excellent presentations, with talks and tutorials from many scientific disciplines. You can view them all on-line at http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYx7XA2nY5GfuhCvStxgbynFNrxr3VFog and I will write posts about some of them in the coming weeks. Some of my favorite talks:
Computational Thinking is Computational Learning, Lorena Barba:
The Wonderful World of Scientific Computing with Python, David Sanders
and
Astropy and astronomical tools Part I, Greenfield, Bray, Robitaille, Aldcroft
