Earth System Modeling Framework 2.2.2rp3 (Default branch)

Freshmeat - mar, 19/02/2008 - 03:46
ESMF is software for building and coupling weather, climate, and related models. The premise is that complicated applications should be broken up into smaller pieces, or components. A component is a unit of software composition that has a coherent function, and a standard calling interface and behavior. Components can be assembled to create multiple applications, and different implementations of a component may be available. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
