Miletic's scientific software consulting services

My name is Vedran Miletic and I obtained my PhD in computer science in 2015 from FER. Today I am the principal investigator of GASERI, a research group working in the fields of computational biochemistry and high-performance computing.

Vedran Miletic

Based on the knowledge and experience I gathered in my group's research work, I offer consulting services for scientific software, including development, testing, porting, and deployment for academic and industrial needs.

My portfolio of prior work

While I contributed to dozens of projects over time, I would like to highlight two:

For more details and other projects, see the complete listing of contributions to open-source software.

The services I offer

  • Development and maintenance

    I offer development and maintenance services for open-source or in-house developed scientific software. The services I offer include, but are not limited to:

    • adding a new feature, for example, developing a new module that implements a particular method,
    • improving existing functionality or fixing a known issue, for example, changing the software to remove limitations for solving a particular problem,
    • refactoring and modernizing the source code, for example, evolving from C++98 with dependency on legacy libraries and build systems to C++17/C++20 with modern open-source libraries and build systems,
    • extending the application programming interface (API) for your particular requirements.

  • Testing and documentation writing

    I offer to write new and improve existing unit, system, regression, and mutation tests for existing scientific software. I also offer build matrix and testing pipeline design for various software as a service (SaaS) and self-hosted continuous integration (CI) tools.

    I offer writing user- or developer-oriented documentation for existing scientific software, including the documentation of application programming interfaces (APIs). I also offer a setup of the documentation build process for producing printable and web-friendly output from the common source, with the style that matches your taste.

    For a portfolio of prior technical writings, see my posts on GASERI blog. For an example of a produced (API) documentation, see RxDock documentation and its API documentation.

  • Cross-platform porting

    I offer software porting of existing scientific applications and libraries from and to Linux, FreeBSD/DragonFly BSD, Solaris/illumos, macOS, and Windows, including MSVC, Cygwin, MSYS2/Mingw-w64, and WSL. For example, my portfolio contains fixes to numerous issues related to porting GNU/Linux- and x86/AMD64-focused open-source scientific software such as GROMACS, ns-3, and RxDock to various other operating systems, compilers, and platforms.

  • Integration and deployment; scientific workflow design and automation

    I offer integration of existing open-source applications and libraries into your workflow, including deployment of server-side software on your on-premise or cloud infrastructure.

    I also offer assistance in choosing specific open-source software for your scientific workflow and workflow design and its automation.
