MUSCLE 2

MUSCLE 2 - The Multiscale Coupling Library and Environment is a portable framework to do multiscale modeling and simulation on distributed computing resources. It provides the software framework to implement multiscale models as defined by the  MAPPER project or complex automata as defined in the  COAST project. The generic coupling mechanism is suitable for many different types of multiscale applications. The runtime environment solves common problems in distributed computing and couples submodels whether they are built for high-performance supercomputers or for local execution. The resulting implementation allows the coupling of legacy as well as dedicated codes with only minor adjustments.

Within the MAPPER, MUSCLE is being enhanced and adapted to the Grid infrastructures. Parts of the reservation and management interacts with the  QCG-Computing middleware stack, intended for job management on e-Infrastructure.

The software that is hosted here was initially developed by Jan Hegewald as part of the COAST project.
