SCIRun

Project Overview

SCIRun is a scientific programming environment which provides for the interactive construction, debugging and steering of large scale computer simulations. A visual programming interface allows scientific computations to be composed, executed, controlled, and tuned via a visual programming interface. Users may extend the set of scientific computations provided. In order to make the dataflow paradigm applicable to large simulations, we have identified ways to avoid excessive memory use. Most importantly, we have applied SCIRun to large scale problems in computational medicine.
