Components, the Common Component Architecture, and the Climate/Weather/Ocean Community
نویسندگان
چکیده
Earth system and environmental models present the scientist/programmer with multiple challenges in software design, development, and maintenance, overall system integration, and performance. We describe how work in the industrial sector of software engineering—namely component-based software engineering—can be brought to bear to address issues of software complexity. We explain how commercially developed component solutions are inadequate to address the performance needs of the Earth system modeling community. We describe a component-based approach called the Common Component Architecture that has as its goal the creation of a component paradigm that is compatible with the requirements of high-performance computing applications. We outline the relationship and ongoing collaboration between CCA and major Climate/Weather/Ocean community software projects. We present examples of work in progress that uses CCA, and discuss long-term plans for the CCA-climate/weather/ocean collaboration.

Classifying daily climate circulation patterns has always been considered by climatologists. Investigating climate changes such as rainfall and the temperature in a same single time and place suggests that these changes are strongly influenced by atmospheric circulation patterns. Regarding so, climate changes, known as variables here, such as rainfall, temperature, and other related phenomen...

As an example of extreme hot humid climate, the southern marginal rim of Iran is a perfect candidate for studying climatic patterns. Attention to climatic components in housing design process within this area is therefore essential. Benefitting from the airflow and avoiding heat and radiation are among the most effective approaches towards moderating heat conditions in hot and humid areas. ...
