Hi, here is an official announcement for the swMATH project.
Cheers, Burcin Begin forwarded message: Date: Mon, 17 Jun 2013 17:00:29 +0200 From: Gert-Martin Greuel <gre...@mathematik.uni-kl.de> Subject: swMATH Dear all, I would like you to inform you about a new service on mathematical software, www.swmath.org The database contains information on more than 5,000 software packages and literature, citing the software. More information is attached. It would be nice if many of you would check swMATH and provide feedback. For example, by answering the questions in the (rather short) questionnaire: https://de.surveymonkey.com/s/swMATH-survey Best regards, Gert-Martin Greuel --------------- What is swMATH? swMATH is a freely accessible, innovative information service for mathematical software. swMATH not only provides access to an extensive database of information on mathematical software, but also includes a systematic linking of software packages with relevant mathematical publications. The intention is to offer a list of all publications that refer to a software recorded in swMATH. In particular, all articles are given, which are included in Zentralblatt MATH (zbMATH). It can be both, articles that describe the background and technical details of a program, as well as those publications in which a piece of software is applied or used for research. In this way, swMATH provides information on actual use of the software that is otherwise impossible or very difficult to obtain. At the same time the documentation of literature referring to a software is a valuable source of information for the authors of the software about where their software is used. Moreover, if software is cited in scientific publications, this is also an important quality criterion, which is used by swMATH for software selection. swMATH sees itself as a service to the mathematical community. Additions, corrections and other notes from authors and users of mathematical software can be communicated under 'Feedback' and are very welcome. Project Information swMATH is a project of the Mathematical Research Institute Oberwolfach (MFO) and FIZ Karlsruhe (FIZ), funded by the Leibniz Association 2011-2013.
