2010 Stream 2 (developer interface)

Last edited Timestamp?

---

The stream 2 work will consist first in simplifying the system by removing duplicated modules, and second, in cleaning the mpp library which is a necessary step prior to its adaptation to next generation of parallel computers. An important benefit of this stream is to optimize the whole system and as a consequence to have more time for developments. The actions of the stream are detailed below.:

S2.1 : Merge TRA-TRC

Motivation: Merge of active and passive tracer advection/diffusion modules to avoid duplication of almost identical modules

main tasks :

(1) replace T and S 3D arrays by 4D arrays throughout the code (v3.4)
(2) put the 4D traceur as input argument of advection and diffusion routines (v3.4)
(3) merge the TRC and TRA trend diagnostic module (v3.4) Principal Investigator : Christian Ethé (cetlod@…)

S2.3 : MPP evolution

Preparing future evolution of mpp computing, prepare further improvement of the model performance on mpp computers by revisiting the foundations of mpp and simplifying them.

Work :

(1) Merge of inimpp and inimpp2 (v3.3)

(2) Update of a mpp_sum giving the same results in single and multi-proc. runs.
To be done for v3.3 (i.e. end of 2009).

(3) rewriting of mpp library in a clean and simplified way (v3.3)
done, release in nemov3_2

S1.3 : reference manuels

Motivation: paper documentation.
main task : (1) Create the TRP documentation using Latex (similar to the NEMO ocean engine documentation) (Paris team, 2 w) (v3.3)
(2) review of the written documentation (NOCS team, 1 w) (v3.3)
Principal Investigator : Christian Ethé (cetlod@…)
