Quirkos is a software tool that is used for qualitative data analysis. It is a powerful and flexible (more) tool that is designed to help users identify patterns and themes in large volumes of text-based data, such as interview transcripts, survey responses, and focus group transcripts. Quirkos includes a range of features for working with qualitative data, including tools for organizing and categorizing data, tools for coding and tagging data, and tools for visualizing and analyzing data. It is designed to be easy to use and user-friendly, and it includes a variety of interactive features that allow users to explore and understand the data in a hands-on way. Quirkos is widely used in education and research, and it is often used in conjunction with other data analysis and visualization tools. It is a valuable tool for students, educators, and researchers who are interested in exploring and understanding the underlying themes and patterns in large volumes of text-based data.

Gwyddion is a free, open-source software tool for analyzing and visualizing scientific data, particu (more)larly data from microscopy and other imaging techniques. It is primarily used for analyzing and processing images and data from scanning probe microscopes (SPMs), such as atomic force microscopes (AFMs) and scanning tunneling microscopes (STMs), but it can also be used for other types of data, such as images from optical microscopes and spectroscopic data. Gwyddion includes a wide range of features and tools for tasks such as data visualization, data analysis, image processing, and curve fitting. It is particularly useful for tasks such as surface characterization, particle sizing, and imaging and analysis of nanostructures. Gwyddion is available for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and it can be downloaded from the Gwyddion website. It is developed and maintained by a community of volunteers, and it is distributed under the GNU General Public License (GPL). Operating system: Cross-platform License: GPL (Free software)

RQDA (R-based Qualitative Data Analysis) is a software tool for analyzing qualitative data, such as  (more)text, audio, and video. It is an open-source software program developed by the R Project and is used in a variety of applications, including social science research, education, and healthcare. RQDA includes a range of features for organizing, coding, and analyzing qualitative data, such as tools for transcribing audio and video, creating and managing codebooks, and generating reports. It is used to study the content and meaning of qualitative data, such as conversations, interviews, and observations. RQDA is available for free download for Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems. It is often used in conjunction with other software tools, such as the statistical programming language R.

Einstein@Home is a distributed computing project that uses idle computer time to search for gravitat (more)ional waves and other phenomena in data collected by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO). It is a volunteer computing project that relies on the contributions of individuals around the world who donate their idle computer time to help analyze the data. Einstein@Home is named after Albert Einstein, whose theory of general relativity predicted the existence of gravitational waves. These waves are thought to be ripples in the fabric of space-time that are created by the acceleration of massive objects, such as black holes and neutron stars. The detection of gravitational waves is a major milestone in the field of physics, as it provides a new way to study the universe and test the predictions of Einstein's theory. Einstein@Home is managed by a team of scientists and researchers from institutions around the world, and it is supported by a number of organizations, including the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics. The project is open to anyone who is interested in contributing their idle computer time to the search for gravitational waves. Operating system: Cross-platform License: GPL-2.0-or-later
