<p><b>MITgcm</b> |
| 24 |
|
<ul> |
| 25 |
|
<li> |
| 26 |
|
runs on a wide <a href=../online_documents/manual/targethw.html>range of computer systems.</a></li> |
| 27 |
|
|
| 28 |
|
<li> |
| 29 |
|
includes special software (called <a href=../online_documents/manual/wrapper.html>WRAPPER</a>) |
| 30 |
|
to support efficient execution and relatively easy portablity.</li> |
| 31 |
|
</ul> |
| 32 |
|
<b>Platforms where MITgcm is run regularly include</b> |
| 33 |
|
<ul> |
| 34 |
|
<li> |
| 35 |
|
PC's ( both Intel and AMD processor based) running Linux.</li> |
| 36 |
|
|
| 37 |
|
<li> |
| 38 |
|
Unix workstations from Sun, SGI, HP, IBM, Compaq.</li> |
| 39 |
|
|
| 40 |
|
<li> |
| 41 |
|
Unix based PC and workstation clusters.</li> |
| 42 |
|
|
| 43 |
|
<li> |
| 44 |
|
high-end symetric multi-processor systems.</li> |
| 45 |
|
</ul> |
| 46 |
|
|
| 47 |
|
<ul>Under the WRAPPER, code also runs very efficiently on high-end vector |
| 48 |
|
processing systems, if you have one.</ul> |
| 49 |
|
<b>The minimum you require to run the model is</b> |
| 50 |
|
<ul> |
| 51 |
|
<li> |
| 52 |
|
a computer runing a Unix style operating system.</li> |
| 53 |
|
|
| 54 |
|
<li> |
| 55 |
|
a Fortran 77, Fortran 90 or Fortran 95 compiler.</li> |
| 56 |
|
|
| 57 |
|
<li> |
| 58 |
|
a C compiler.</li> |
| 59 |
|
</ul> |
| 60 |
|
<b>To run parallel configurations you also need either</b> |
| 61 |
|
<ul> |
| 62 |
|
<li> |
| 63 |
|
a system that supports multi-threaded programs.</li> |
| 64 |
|
|
| 65 |
|
<li> |
| 66 |
|
a system with an implementation of the MPI library installed.</li> |
| 67 |
|
</ul> |
| 68 |
|
|
| 69 |
|
<ul>Specialized communication software to optimizes performance on a specific |
| 70 |
|
platform can also be introduced into the WRAPPER.</ul> |
| 71 |

|
<p><br><b>Once you have your computer set up</b> |
| 73 |
|
<blockquote>go here to download the model. The full distribution (including |
| 74 |
|
examples with input datasets and sample output) is around 50MB. Instructions |
| 75 |
|
on estimating the computing resource requirements (CPU time, memory usage |
| 76 |
|
and disk space) for a set of numerical experiments can be found here.</blockquote> |
