Short Note Linux at SEP

چکیده
SEP continuously balances its commitment to geophysical research with its maintenance and improvement of its computing environment. We suggest that SEP could save a significant amount of time currently expended on the computing environment by simplifying its system, in particular, by reducing the number of supported computer platforms. We suggest a conceptually different computer environment in which SEP researcher would use a Linux workstation for standard UNIX services and a few special purpose computers for specific tasks such as huge computations. We prefer Linux because of its software quality, its portability, and free availability. Additionally, the PC hardware is not limited to a single vendor’s operating system.

متن کاملShort Note A short tour through the Stanford Exploration Project con- tributions to anisotropy

The amazement stems from the fact that a hidden principle, which states “anisotropy is not an important”, existed in SEP. This principle evolved from statements like “If you believe in anisotropy!” and “avoid the two A’s ...
