NeuroFedora

Summary

The focus of this SIG is to package and support neuroscience and neuroimaging applications, libraries and datasets on Fedora from the next release on. These packages will enable researchers to use Fedora in all aspects of their work from the design of experiments, data collection, data processing/analysis, data modeling and simulations through to visualization and report generation.

Owner

SIGs/NeuroFedora

Current status

  • Targeted release: Fedora 24
  • Last updated: 2015-11-10
  • Tracker bug: <will be assigned by the Wrangler>

Detailed Description

Benefit to Fedora

These packages bring potentially thousands of researchers and clinicians into Fedora as well as providing the basis for a possible Fedora Spin in the future. There is some overlap in the packages covered that include packages of interest to other SIGs such as Fedora Medical, Fedora SciTech as well as BigData and ML. Researchers are also very likely to use and test systems locally but production runs of analysis are usually managed on clusters using server or cloud instances.


Scope
