Tools for Analysis: ipython
Why ipython Notebook? It works mostly as a notebook. Supporting Markdown Syntax Supporting LATEX Supporting Python-scripting See the result of your script immediately Share it to your friends or through nbviewer \nabla \times \vec{\mathbf{b}} -\, \frac1c\, \frac{\partial \vec{\mathbf{e}}} {\partial t} & = \frac{4\pi}{c} \vec{\mathbf{j}} \\ \nabla \cdot \vec{\mathbf{e}} & = 4 \pi \rho \\ \nabla \times \vec{\mathbf{e}}\, +\, \frac1c\, \frac{\partial \vec{\mathbf{b}}} {\partial t} & = \vec{\mathbf{0}} \\ \nabla \cdot \vec{\mathbf{b}} & = 0 http://www.slideshare.net/gofrendiasgard/introduction-to-ipython-notebook
Demo
Conclusion Using ipython Notebook, you can: Write some notes, formulas and Python scripts. Maintain your research reproducible. Share your works and idea easily. Do almost everything you can do with matlab for free.
Tools for Writing: Zotero or Mendeley
Why using a Reference Manager Software? My Library has 708 publications. That does not includes my MSc.
Why using a Reference Manager Software? The pdf of your article is linked to the reference itself. You can organise references into logical groups (areas, subjects, disciplines, subdisciplines) by utilising folders and tags. You can one-click save articles and organise them from your browser. This is invaluable in saving time on organising. You can sync across multiple devices like desktops, laptops and tablets. For instance, Mendeley has an ios app which does this for you. You can read your articles inside the reference manager and then do useful things like highlighting and annotations which can then be saved as notes for future reference. You can export to specific citation styles. This is very useful for someone doing interdisciplinary work. For instance, I have to constantly use the same or similar bibliography using APA style, ACM style, IEEE style. http://academia.stackexchange.com/questions/10843/should-i-use-reference-manager-software
