SIG 9 or ECACOMSIG

Workshops

SIG9 (also called ECACOMSIG) organises Computing Workshops to help Crystallographers develop software for use in our science. Previous events have been held across Europe since 2013, in non-IUCr GA and Congress years. The next will be in Stift Melk, Austria, in 2019 before ECM32 in Vienna, and will last for around three full days.

Software Fayres

These events have been held to showcase Crystallographic Software at both ECMs and IUCr GA & Congresses for many years. They are currently organised by Martin Lutz and Claudia Millán-Nebot.

Scope and Objectives

ECACOMSIG (or “SIG9”) is the ECA’s Special Interest Group that promotes all aspects of Computing in Crystallography. As such, its activities are central to most of the other SIGs in the ECA.

ECACOMSIG works closely with the International Union of Crystallography’s Commission on Crystallographic Computing (“CompComm”) to organise Microsymposia at meetings of the ECA and the IUCr and to organise Schools for developers and potential developers in computational methods for Crystallography.
