TY - JOUR A1 - Dalitz, Wolfgang A1 - Sperber, Wolfram A1 - Chrapary, Hagen T1 - swMATH: A Publication-based Approach to Mathematical Software JF - SIAM Newsletter N2 - The growing importance of mathematical software in everyday life—in applications such as internet communication, traffic, and artificial intelligence—necessitates advances in software documentation services to raise awareness of existing packages and their usage. Such information helps potential software developers and users make informed choices about packages that could advance their work in modeling, simulation, and analysis. At the same time, software presents novel challenges to information services that require the development of new methods and means of processing. swMATH provides users with an overview of a broad range of mathematical software and extends documentation services for publications related to such software. It acts as a counterpart to the established abstracting and reviewing services for mathematical publications and has nearly 30,000 entries, making it one of the most comprehensive documentation services in mathematics.

First, software typically cannot be reduced to a single object: information about software is an aggregate of software code, APIs, documentation, installations guides, tutorials, user interfaces, test data, dependencies on hardware and other software, etc. Moreover, secondary information about software, especially use cases and experience with employing the software, is important to communicate. Second, typically named software, which we term here a `software product', is taken to stand for all versions of the software which can have different features and properties and may produced different results from the same input data. Software production is a dynamic process and software development is, increasingly, widely distributed. Therefore GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket and other platforms for sharing are used. Information about software is alos provided in different locations, on websites, repositories, portals, etc. Each resource provides information about software from a particular point of view, but the information is often not linked together. Therefore swMATH has developed a conception which covers portals and a search engines for mathematical software, persistent and citable landing pages for specific software, and a method for software archiving. Based on the publication-based approach, swMATH collects and analyses semi-automatically the existing information about mathematical software found on the Web and makes it available in a user-oriented way.

Die Anzahl mathematischer Softwareprodukte wächst, nicht zuletzt durch die Anforderungen der Anwender, stark. Anders als für mathematische Publikationen sind für das Management mathematischer Software viele Fragen offen und werden noch diskutiert, etwa die Standardisierung von Software Zitationen. Der Aufbau einer effizienten Infrastruktur für Software ist eine notwendige Voraussetzung für die Überprüfung von Forschungsergebnissen, die mittels Software erzielt worden sind und wichtig für die Entscheidung, ob eine bestimmte Software zur Lösung eines Problems verwendet werden soll. Das swMATH [1] Portal gibt einen weitgehend vollständigen Überblick über die existierende mathematische Software. Es ist ein Dienst entstanden, der automatisiert die im Web vorhandenen Informationen zu einer Software identifiziert, auswertet und verfügbar macht. Der Dienst soll insbesondere durch die Verknüpfung mit anderen Quellen, etwa dem Internet Archive, persistente Informationen über ein Software Produkt und dessen Versionen liefern.

It was the intention of the project to support the user community by providing infor- mation about MSW and searching relevant MSW. Currently swMATH lists infor- mation of more than 13,000 items and 120,000 publications which refer to MSW. Maintaining and updating of the service is mainly done automatically, the num- ber of requests is permanently increasing. This sounds like a perfect solution. But swMATH is only a first step to a powerful information system on mathematical research data. This talk addresses some open problems for the further develop- ment of the swMATH service. It is shown that some problems for swMATH lead to central questions for the information management of mathematical research data, especially for MSW. This contains an extended content analysis of MSW, versioning and citation standard of MSW, a typing of the swMATH resources and the presentation of context information and high-quality control within the swMATH service.

We need better ways for dealing with and managing the information. A qualified semantic annotation of the information plays a key role for the Web of the future. This article gives an overview about the efforts of the mathematical community to build up a distributed and open information and communication system for mathematics: the Math-Net. The Math-Net Initiative has developed metadata schemas for some classes of Web resources which are relevant in mathematics. Math-Net Services process this information and enable the user to efficiently search and access the information.

The project aims at setting up the technical and organizational infrastructure for efficient, inexpensive and user-driven information services for mathematics. With the aid of active (structured retrieval mechanisms) and passive (profile services) components, electronic mathematical information in Germany will be made available to the scientist at his workplace. The emphasis is put on information about publications, software and data collections, teaching and research activities, but also on organizational and bibliographical information. Decentral organization structures, distributed search systems as well as the use of meta-information (metadata) in accordance with the Dublin Core (hopefully) guarantee a longterm, high-quality repository of data. The well-known mathematical software and data collection netlib\/ will be used as an example to illustrate how such a collection can be adapted to Math-Net. An integration of netlib into HyperWave offers additional perspectives and functionalities.
