SE-CSE Workshop

This post originally appeared on the Software Carpentry website.

One of the downsides of being in Texas is that I couldn't attend the First International Workshop on Software Engineering for Computational Science and Engineering, which was held at ICSE'08 in Leipzig this week. Papers are here (I'll be reading them on the flight home); they look interesting, but the biggest thing for me is the change in the workshop's name—it used to be "Software Engineering for High-Performance Computing Applications" (2004, 2005, 2006, 2007), and I'm hoping the change of name reflects a genuine broadening of focus.
