Does anyone use a blog in their scientific research groups? If so, are they private or public blogs? How does the blog work in conjunction with a group wiki?
@jlu: Blogs are more like conversational devices or unstructured notes. Wikis are more structured, more like communal lab books, at least in this context.
I wonder if we could start a discussion on the assignment of Lecture 2 (computing Hamming numbers in 3 different languages). I've gone ahead and used Matlab, Fortran95 and Python. I wanted to try some better profiling of the codes I wrote, but I have the following questions: * How do you compute elapsed time in Python? * How do you test memory usage for codes such as Python, C, Fortran, Matlab? * Is there a particular code profiling tool that people can recommend?
As soon as I've figured out the above issues I'm more than happy to discuss results!
Actually, I just want to make sure - what are the current assignments for the class right now? Where do we turn them in? Have there been any class emails in the past week or so? I haven't received any.
Thanks, I will
ReplyDeleteOh, it actually works.

ReplyDeleteYeah, here I am. :)
ReplyDeleteThe pbwiki tutorials are pretty helpful. Like this one... http://www.archive.org/details/Pbwiki101YourGuideToWikiBasicsapril22
ReplyDeleteI have also encountered research group blogs aimed at the general public, intended to foster understanding and interest.
ReplyDeleteHi guys, would it be a good idea to link our blogs to our own research webpages?
