Voir la source de Computing Tools for Research

This page lists software tools that are useful for research. For obvious reasons, open source tools, relying on open standards, are emphasized:
* Document typesetting: Latex (first class typesetting and math/equation rendering, [http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/ wikibook], [http://tobi.oetiker.ch/lshort/lshort.pdf The Not So Short Introduction to LATEX])
** Latex is used a lot with the emergence and ease of use of https://www.overleaf.com (there are some WYSIWYG editor [http://kile.sourceforge.net Kile] and [http://www.lyx.org Lyx])

Another common pitfall deals with author names: they should be <first name1> <last name1> and <first name2> <last name2> and ...
** [https://www.zotero.org/ zotero] is another good tool, with a quick web-based tool to create your bibliography that can be exported to common formats https://zbib.org/
* File synchronization: [http://syncthing.net/ syncthing], [http://www.dropbox.com Dropbox] (proprietary), rsync with ssh
* Remote desktop: clients and servers for the VNC protocol (multi-plateform), TeamViewer (proprietary)
** see [[Linux_Resources]] for more info to connect to a linux server
* Operating system virtualization: VirtualBox
* Text editors: emacs (multi-plateforme), atom, sublimetext, jEdit (multi-plateforme), notepad++ (Windows), gedit (Linux)
* [[Programming_Resources|Programming resources]], including databases
* [[Data_Science_Resources|Data science resources]], including spatial data
