Docker is an Open Source software to easily deploy software as containers and therefore ideally suited to run CaosDB in different software environments without the need for differing installation procedures. This also obsoletes the step of setting up an…
Your data model as an image file
Did you know how easy it is to export your data model used in LinkAhead? to_graphics(container, “data_model”) The following Python script for example downloads the data model from the Demo LinkAhead server and generates an UML diagram. All you have to do is run the script and afterwards simply open the image file.
HEADS app calculates risk for corona contraction
Over the last months, we developed an app for the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization and the University Medical Center in Göttingen which calculates the indoor risk to contract a COVID 19 infection. The researchers, led by Freja Nordsiek, Eberhard Bodenschatz and Gholamhossein Bagheri, developed a detailed model for the spread, settling and…
