ckon - automatic build tool for C++ software written in the data analysis framework ROOT by CERN

<p><em>ckon</em> is a C++ program/tool which automatically takes care of compilation, dictionary generation and linking of programs and libraries developed for data analyses within the CERN ROOT analysis framework. This includes parsing include headers to figure out which libraries the main programs need to be linked to. It uses automake/autoconf to be platform independent and GNU install compliant. In addition, m4 macros are automatically downloaded and the according compiler flags included based on a list of boost libraries provided in the config file. For the purpose of YAML database usage, a m4 macro can be downloaded during setup to link against the yaml-cpp library.</p> <p>This release is tested on Mac and Ubuntu platforms with different BOOST environment setups.</p

wp-pdf - simultaneously deploy WordPress and create PDFs

<p>This repo provides a Makefile and setup instructions to easily deploy/create WordPress pages and corresponding pdf versions based on AsciiDoc text files alone. The Demo Case at http://asciidoc.the-huck.com uses the AsciiDoc userguide itself. See announcement at https://groups.google.com/d/topic/asciidoc/Sio9vxclWkY/discussion</p> <p>First official release of wp-pdf</p

Effective and interactive dissemination of diffusion data using MPContribs, plus a demo of UW/SI2 and MPContribs

<p>We will describe in this talk how the general approach taken by MPContribs solves the very specific challenges faced by the UW researchers in effectively disseminating their data to the public. The presented solution developed in the collaborative effort between UW and LBNL is the first to demonstrate how MPContribs can empower research groups through the rapid development and deployment of customized but MP-compatible web applications either using on-site or MP resources. It will also be shown how these efforts directly translate into solutions for the ongoing collaboration with researchers at the Advanced Light Source at LBNL [1] in which we aim to develop a processing pipeline for experimental XAS data from the beamline computer to integrated analysis web apps on MP.</p><p>In our demo portion, we show the integration of the UW/SI2 workflow with MPContribs and JupyterHub. See [2] for a quick impression of the general functionality for the UW/SI2 use case. The video and the demo illustrate how MPContribs can be used to contribute, explore and feed data to the generic contribution details pages as well as a project-specific web application.</p><p>[1] MPContribs, arXiv:1510.05024, arXiv:1510.05727, MRS Spring 2016</p><p>[2] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbWde5StHnU (3:43min)</p
