Software Suite and Computer Science Approaches
CASCADE Software Suite
The Computation and Predictions team is building upon pattern detection and statistical tools using the following approaches:
- Exploit parallelism across time, spatial locations and ensemble members
- TECA (Toolkit for Extreme Climate Analysis) exploits parallelism across time and ensembles
- Parallel GEV tools exploit parallelism across spatial locations
- Develop highly scalable code (computation, parallel I/O)
Computer Science Approaches
- Analytics tools are implemented in C, C++, R
- Utilize MPI for parallel execution on petascale platforms
- Subscribe to state-of-the art data management practices
