Ask HN: Resources to Learn Scientific Computing?
2 by TripleH | 1 comments on Hacker News.
After some years of software engineering (mobile apps and back end development) in classic business domains, I recently joined a company in a scientific domain (space). I gathered along the way knowledge of how to architecture and build systems depending on the expected volumetry (numbers of active users) and its distribution in time (periods of activity). Now I'm faced with the challenge of turning Matlab scripts of the research team designed to run, for a single data point, on a single machine, into a system able to perform those computations on a lot more data and eventually in a distributed manner. I am well aware there is no silver bullet and will have to compose a solution based on the specifics of my use case. That's why I'm asking you, the truly diverse HN community, for the best resources you know on the subject.
