Linux Central To Higgs Boson Discovery
An unnamed but apparently well-informed insider has argued that the [CERN] project's use of Linux was more than established convention.
“I don't see any CERN-related things here, so I want to mention how Linux (specifically, Scientific Linux and Ubuntu) had a vital role in the discovery of the new boson at CERN,” said the source on Reddit, sparking supporting comments from others involved in the field.
“We use it every day in our analyses, together with hosts of open software, such as ROOT, and it plays a major role in the running of our networks of computers (in the grid etc.) used for the intensive work in our calculations,” continued the source.
