The AISRP Code and Algorithm Library
The AISRP Code and Algorithm Library is
maintained and supported by the NASA
Applied Information Science Research Program
for use by the general scientific community. It is intended to serve
as a public library, archive, and distribution center for code,
algorithm descriptions, software packages, and associated literature
and documentation. It can also be used as a distribution center for
small sample data sets for the evaluation, demonstration,
comparison, and test of different analysis code.
This site consists of two facilities: a
Download Server
via which user can download material from the library, and an
Upload Server
via which users can upload material to the library. The Download
Server is avaliable without restrictions. To use the Upload Server,
we request that users open an account to provide the associated
contact information, etc. This can be handled via the server.
What this site is:
- A public archive and library.
- For use by the general scientific community
- For the storage of code, algorithm descriptions, documentation,
sample data sets, and examples.
- A means to make code and algorithms developed by individual
investigators available to the wider community.
What this site is not:
- This site is not a code development facility analgous to
SourceForge.
- This site does not have provisions for configuration managment
and control.
We would welcome comments, recommendations, and suggestions. We
would also welcome links, submissions, and material. If you have
any comments or suggestions please communicate directly with the
facility manager:

About the AISRP
The purpose of NASA's Applied Information Systems Research
(AISR) Program is to exploit advances in information science and
technology to enhance space science productivity from NASA's space
flight missions sponsored by the Office of Space Science (OSS).
AISR funds the application of emerging information technologies,
concepts, methodologies, etc. to demonstrate their feasibility and
potential science return, as well as informing missions and research
disciplines of promising techniques and capabilities worthy of
broader application and/or further development through full
maturity.
The specific goals of the AISR program are to:
- Investigate novel information technologies and computational
methods that have the potential to increase productivity of
the OSS research and/or education and public outreach endeavors,
and which would extend the state-of-the-practice in space
science;
- Demonstrate the degree of relevance, applicability, and
potential impact of emerging information technologies to OSS
missions and programs;
- Foster interdisciplinary collaborations that span the space
science and computer science disciplines
The AISR program seeks innovative ideas for uses of information
technology to increase life cycle effectiveness and efficiency of
the OSS research endeavor across all of its science themes. For a
complete description of the AISR program, as well as a list of past
and current awards and future research opportunities, see the
AISRP Program Site.
