A preprint describing AiiDA is available on arXiv at
http://arxiv.org/abs/1504.01163 while extensive code documentation for
users and developers (installation instructions, tutorials, user and
development manuals) is distributed with the code and available
online at http://aiida-core.readthedocs.org/en/stable/

The core of the software ("aiida_core") is released under an
open-source MIT license and can be freely downloaded (no registration
