Key applications and software tools in the fire and smoke simulation area:
- Firestation
- pFirestation
- gFirestation
- Wind simulation
- FARSITE
- Firestation
- Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS)
Which of the applications would benefit from integration with EGI/NGI services:
- Firestation
- compute intensive (to run on a single machine)
- requires user friendly web interfaces (portal interfaces)
- Two-stage fire prediction scheme
- needs to connect to databases or other resources at multiple sites
- requires hosting on remote resources (to provide a service for a large community)
- requires user friendly web interfaces (portal interfaces)
- FDS
- compute intensive (to run on a single machine)
Computing systems used for running the applications:
- desktop computer
- compute cluster
- Grid infrastructure
Types of applications:
- Pure batch mode
- Parallel applications with lots of communication
- Only transfer of input/output data to computer
- Frequent but small communication between computers
- Coupled applications (applications such as independent fluid structure)
- Parallel applications with low communication
Compilers needed to build the applications:
- gcc
- gfortran
- f90/95
