Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Wookey <[email protected]> * Package name : jscience Version : 4.3.1 Upstream Author : 2007 JScience (http://jscience.org/) * URL : http://jscience.org/ * License : JScience Programming Lang: Java Description : Java science library (algebra, matrices, physical models)
JScience library provides a comprehensive Java library for the scientific community. It contains the following modules: . * Units of Measurement services. * A coordinates module compliant with OGC/ISO specifications for the development and deployment of geographic applications. * A rigourous mapping of mathematical structures (e.g. Group, Ring, Field, VectorSpace ) to Java interfaces. * A linear algebra module, which includes a first parameterized matrix class capable of resolving linear system of equations involving any kind of elements. * A functions module for symbolic calculations and analysis. * Support for exact or arbitrary precision measurements * Support for Standard, Relativistic, High-Energy, Quantum and Natural physical models. * A monetary module for precision-guaranteed calculations and currencies conversions. I am packaging this because it is needed by the current release of caveconverter for calculating hulls. And it seems like quite a generally useful java package. This package depends recursively(!) on geoapi (http://www.geoapi.org/ ). Presumably that recursiveness is not a good enough reason to just put geoapi in the same source package, and build them together, so I should file an ITP for that too (and ideally put in staged builds so they can easily be built)? There was #555524 filed about this in 2009, and closed in 2011.
