This repository contains the archived source code of Chaînage Efficace de Contour, a legacy Software developped between 1985 and 1991 at Inria, by Gérard Giraudon, Philippe Garnesson and Patrick Cipière. The source code can be discovered via two different angles, materialized as two different branches.
The main branch contains the original materials as well as the metada linked to the code. The original finds are stored in the Depository containing the raw materials and the browsable source.
- Folder raw materials is for the original source code materials, as they have been found or submitted.
- Folder source_code is for a machine readable version of the source code. Source files, with the right extension, have to be accessible through the GitHub web interface, e.g., archives should be decompressed, code should be transcribed if provided by images, etc.This folder serves as a base for the reconstruction of the development history as a git repository.
- Folder metadata holds various files with meta information to be updated throughout the process.
The SourceCode branch contains the reconstructed synthetic development history of Chaînage de contour.
This repository was created with the support of the Software Heritage Acquisition Process (SWHAP).
For general considerations about the process, check out the SWHAP guide as initially published in 2019 with UNESCO. For a detailed step by step description of the process, check out the SWHAP@Inria guide. The SWHAP@Inria guide is itself a simplified version of the step by step SHWAP@Pisa guide published by the university of Pisa.
