| | 4 | = The orginal code = |
| | 5 | - monolitic |
| | 6 | - fortran |
| | 7 | - MPI/HDF5 dependency |
| | 8 | - high scalability of the main MHD module |
| | 9 | - propotype particule simulation Monte Carlo module |
| | 10 | - coupling done via global variables |
| | 11 | = The goal = |
| | 12 | - couple using MUSCLE, why? |
| | 13 | * the coupling is done one way (from MHD to MC), this brings a potential of introducing new level of parallelism (in curent code MHD and MC simulations are called one after another, sequentially) |
| | 14 | * the MC is in process of GPU-enabling, one may want to run both modules on different heterogenous resources (i.e. MC on GPU cluster, base MHD code on Intel Nehalem cluster) |
| | 15 | = The code = |
