A brief overview of the recent, on-going, and future activities for Technology Platforms 3 (Multi-disciplinary community datasets) and 4 (Simulation and Data Visualization) are given here:
Recent:
- Setting up this UC Wiki to be used by QuakeCoRE
- Survey of QuakeCoRE researchers' computational needs: https://www.surveymonkey.com/analyze/gA_2Fq_2BRrLNFBKyIUIvGCeDqMFFPw7rYm4cDe12uypGww_3D
- Presentation of the strategic partnership between NeSI and QuakeCoRE at Eresearch 2016: Clare_QuakeCoRE_NeSI_Collaboration_Eresearch2016.pdf
- Establishing a github repository for the ground motion software to enable version control and collaboration
On-going:
- Development of a Strategic Plan and Budget for these two Technology Platforms
- Recruitment of software engineer(s) for these two Technology Platforms
- Porting of Emod3D code from Blue Gene machine (being decommissioned mid 2016) to NIWA's Fitzroy machine
- Software Carpentry instructor certification and workshop for QuakeCoRE researchers
- Streamlining of the ground motion post-processing software (from Matlab code residing on local machines to parallelised Python on NeSI cluster under github version control)
Future:
- Use of SPECFEM3D code on Fitzroy for inversion simulations
- Streamlining of the pre-processing workflow (from matlab on local machines to parallelised Python on NeSI cluster under github version control)
