Aradia Aradia Aradia is intended to become a general implementation and development environment for scientific applications.
Many scientific projects require complex software.
Usually software developed for a certain research project cannot easily be applied or used by other projects. An expandable and adaptable environment especially designed for scientific applications, which provides a general basis to exchange and reuse scientific algorithms, could improve this situation. While there are certain commercial packages for different scientific applications, they fail in various aspects to fulfill the needs for an academic environment. Some of these programs can quite efficiently be used as an intelligent formula collection, but they are useless for exploring unknown areas. They are hardly expandable or can only be expanded in very limited ways.
