Dr Elisabeth Lobe und Dr Peter Schuhmacher vom DLR geben uns einen (nicht ganz so) kleinen Einblick in die Welt von Quantencomputern und an welchen Themen sie daran arbeiten. Ein spannendes Gebiet auf dem viel passiert!

My guest is John Stevenson from the British Geological Survey (BGS) and there is a lot to cover in this episode: John's switch from science to engineering; how to move from proprietary to open source software - and the hot stuff: volcanos. And what John did in volcanology.

How can you transition from photo-type or exploratory research software to production code? Can you? I've been discussing this with my guest Duncan McGregor. In the first part of our discussion we touch on how you can effectively analyse large data sets that are distributed over different locations with tools like Dask.
