An overview of the Morfeus project
The objectives of this project are to: (1) move scientific programmers to higher-level, platform-agnostic yet scalable abstractions; (2) to demonstrate general OOD patterns and distill new domain-specific patterns from multiphysics applications in Fortran; and (3) to construct an open-source framework that encourages the use of the demonstrated patterns. Some conclusions are: (1) Calculus illuminates a path toward highly asynchronous computing that blurs the task/data parallel distinction; (2) Fortran 2003 appears to have the expressiveness to support the general GoF design patterns in multiphysics applications; and (3) several domain-specific and language-specific patterns emerge along the way.
