SciPy (pronounced "Sigh Pie") is open-source software for mathematics, science, and engineering. It is also the name of a very popular conference on scientific programming with Python. The SciPy library depends on NumPy, which provides convenient and fast N-dimensional array manipulation. The SciPy library is built to work with NumPy arrays, and provides many user-friendly and efficient numerical routines such as routines for numerical integration and optimization. Together, they run on all popular operating systems, are quick to install, and are free of charge. NumPy and SciPy are easy to use, but powerful enough to be depended upon by some of the world's leading scientists and engineers. If you need to manipulate numbers on a computer and display or publish the results, give SciPy a try!
Centrum voor Wiskunde en Informatica (CWI) is the national research institute for mathematics and computer science in the Netherlands.
CWI has presented its strategy for the period till 2012. The institute will concentrate the efforts on four broad, societally relevant themes:
Earth and life sciences The data explosion
Societal logistics Software as service
