Scaling API-first – The story of a global engineering organization
Inria - Software assets - Energy
1.
2. Inria, a public research institute established in 1967, produces excellent research in
mathematics and computational sciences. The institute covers the entire spectrum of
research at the heart of these areas of activity, and works also on issues asked by other
sciences and by economic and societal actors.
Inria can be considered as a software provider. Indeed, approximately 1000 software are
currently developed of which a large part is distributed with an open source license. Inria is
convinced that this production deserves to be more widely known among academic and
economical actors as it is a source of value creation, which is one of Inria's missions.
The India France Technology Summit is an opportunity to raise awareness of this software
production. Thus, this catalog offers an extract from software assets, as part of the Summit
themes such as health, smart cities, smart grid, critical embedded software, etc. .
You can find all these software files, and many others on
