This page is devoted to describing the
SimDB data model (SimDB/DM from now on).
It is meant to reflect the proposal and incorporate conclusions from the
discussions page.
Current model
As described
here all development can be followed on Volute.
Particularly relevant for the discussion on this page is the data model in
uml/SimDB_DM.xml.
The previous versions as well as later working versions can be found in the history of this file, as well as its direct predecessor
version r902.
I propose that for the rest of the discussion we limit ourselves to the model in the
specification subdirectory.
In this page we gather material to support the model.
Examples of Protocols
For discussion purposes it will be good to have a list of real protocols, i.e. simulation and post-processing codes and algorithms.
Examples of protocols:
Simulators:
- Gadget (http://www.mpa-garching.mpg.de/gadget/)
- Enzo ...
- Flash ...
- Nemo ...
- Ramses ...
- L-Galaxies (MPA semi-analytical (SAM) galaxy formation code)
- GalForm (Durham SAM code)
- GalICS (Horizon SAM)
- ...
Pure post-processors:
cluster finders
- FOF cluster finders (various implementations)
- SUBFIND cluster finder (Springel etal 2001, ADS)
- ...
