From the abstract:
> "...this project is developing BASIL - a tool for
> semi-automatically containerizing the scientific applications,
> frameworks, and workflows. This project will deliver BASIL through
> a web portal, as a command-line tool, and through APIs. BASIL has
> a broad applicability across multiple domains of deep societal
> impact such as artificial intelligence, drug discovery, and
> earthquake engineering. By enabling the preservation of valuable
> legacy software and making them usable for several years in
> future, BASIL will save cost and time in software rewriting and
> software installations, and thus contribute towards advancing the
> prosperity of the society. The project will result in educational
> content on ?Introduction to Containerization? and students engaged
> in the project will develop valuable skills in the areas of
> national interest such as supercomputing/High Performance
> Computing (HPC) and cloud computing."
