The True Bottleneck of Modern Scientific Computing in Astronomy

Instrumentation and Methods for Astrophysics 2010-12-21 v1

Abstract

We discuss what hampers the rate of scientific progress in our exponentially growing world. The rapid increase in technologies leaves the growth of research result metrics far behind. The reason for this lies in the education of astronomers lacking basic computer science aspects crucially important in the data intensive science era.
