Sophisticated analysis, data mining, and visualization tools have become an integral part of modern research programs. Their importance will only grow as the data volume from future missions and programs increases, in some cases by many orders of magnitude. Individual investigators are rarely in a position to develop all the analysis tools they require. They may not have the necessary resources in software, manpower, and time, or even have access to the relevant analysis techniques. At the same time, analysis tools have increasingly become a ‘result’ in their own right, on a par with the research they were developed to support.One way to address these issues is through the distribution and sharing of research software. To this end, NASA’s Applied Information Systems Research Program has begun development of the AISRP Code and Algorithm Library for use by the general scientific community. It is intended to serve as a public library, archive, and distribution center for code, algorithm descriptions, software packages, and associated literature and documentation. It can also be used as a distribution center for small sample data sets for the evaluation, demonstration, comparison, and test of different analysis code.The development version of this facility is now available for public use. We will discuss our experience with this facility along with its capabilities and possible development paths.
