Designed to Work: Part 1 - architecture and research
About this episode
This is the first part on software architecture. Meet James Smithies from Kings College in London (UK), Steve Crouch from the Software Sustainability Institute/Southampton (UK) and Keith Gutfreund from Elsevier, Boston (USA).
Together we explore, what architecture means in software development, both in the private sector and in research; how - and if - architecture fits in with research software engineering.
