Dear NumPy users, The developers of the PyDSTool dynamical systems software project have money to hire a Python programmer on a short-term, per-task basis as a technical consultant. The work can be done remotely and will be paid after the completion of project milestones. The work must be completed by July, when the current funds expire. Prospective consultants could be professionals or students and will have proven experience and interest in working with NumPy/SciPy, scientific computation in general, and interfacing Python with C and Fortran codes.
Detailed work plan, schedule, and project specs are negotiable (if you are talented and experienced we would like your input). The rate of pay is commensurate with experience, and may be up to $45/hr or $1000 per project milestone (no fringe benefits), according to an agreed measure of satisfactory product performance. There is a strong possibility of longer term work depending on progress and funding availability. PyDSTool (pydstool.sourceforge.net) is a multi-platform, open-source environment offering a range of library tools and utils for research in dynamical systems modeling for scientists and engineers. As a research project, it presently contains prototype code that we would like to improve and better integrate into our long-term vision and with other emerging (open-source) software tools. Depending on interest and experience, current projects might include: * Conversion and "pythonification" of old Matlab code for model analysis * Improved interface for legacy C and Fortran code (numerical integrators) via some combination of SWIG, Scons, automake * Overhaul of support for symbolic processing (probably by an interface to SymPy) For more details please contact Dr. Rob Clewley (rclewley) at (@) the Department of Mathematics, Georgia State University (gsu.edu). -- Robert H.
