Details of GEMCI - III
1: User Interface -- Design and build Java(bean) applet to control execution of computational modules. Take advantage of ongoing national DATORR (Desktop Access TO Remote Resources) activity which will lead to standard interfaces between clients, middleware and backend machines and data repositories
2: Large Scale Equation Solver: Exploit collaboration with Caltech and Los Alamos which has developed highly efficient multipole solver for large scale parallel machines (including PC cluster). Major HPCC application. Also need cellular automata and other simulation approaches. All of these methods are expected to parallelize well
3: Local Physics and Friction modules. Develop common interfaces to allow easy experimentation with different approaches
