Development Plans

A number of development priorities for the Broadband Platform:

  1. additional scientific modules
  2. improved portability of platform
  3. documentation on parallel tools
  4. Improved build capabilities
  5. removal of intel compilers
  6. improvement to evaluation tests and tolerances
  7. write simulation summary to sql database for each simulation

Tag first parallel version

  • tag V_11_11_22_orig_parallel

This represents the version produced by Patrick and checked out of trunk Associated is a set of data files.

The md5sum_check.py passes with this source code (trunk) and these data files.

The UnitTests fail on broadband

The acceptance tests fail on broadband

Changes to Tagged Version

  • Added user_inputs and string format to ./AcceptTests.py
  • rename main to scec_bbp

Development Status

We integrated several new capabilities including the as a release candidate called Broadband v11.7.0.

We reviewed this with scientific users including the gatech research group and a number of verification checks still needed to be made before releasing the software. The following changes have been added since v11.2.2

This current development version is on trunk in broadband svn. I am testing the dependencies on compiler version (intensity older) and (broadband newer).

I also checked to show the the checksums/md5sum_check.py in the current trunk passes on intensity when pointed at 11.7.0 data tar. This same md5sum script fails if pointed at v11.2.2 data distribution.

The first parallel version was tagged in the repository as V_11_11_23_orig_parallel

The current trunk version, built with icc -v 9.0.0 passes 18 of 19 unit tests.
