Software for timescale applications

This paper describes some of the design considerations behind the timescale transformation software provided by the International Astronomical Union's SOFA collaboration. The solution adopted by SOFA includes two-part Julian dates, to safeguard precision, and individual treatment of specific transformations, rather than a single general-purpose routine. Correct handling of UTC leap seconds was a particular challenge.
