Abstract

The MOOSE integration, and demonstration using the BISON fuel performance application, helps streamline the users' interaction with their input, its execution and visualization, and subsequent results visualization. The MOOSE framework architecture provides a succinct location from which the NEAMS Workbench can integrate MOOSE applications. While the BISON application was demonstrated, in theory, all MOOSE applications are supported. This initial integration is available in the NEAMS Workbench 1.0 beta release [11]. MOOSE used the LibMesh extension of the GetPot input processor. This input processor lacked the textual location information needed by Workbench to facilitate complex on-demand input validation. The Workbench input processor fulfills these needs and the MOOSE team has since migrated to a new parser that provides better textual location information. Continued collaboration will begin to consolidate these capabilities and will ensure that the user experience remains as consistent as possible. The Workbench runtime environment greatly facilitates the Workbench in its interactions with MOOSE applications. The current interface has been shown to facilitate local execution of the MOOSE BISON application. Remote high-performance clusters with potential scheduler/queuing interfaces must be designed and integrated to best facilitate large or long-running jobs. This capability is under development in the NEAMS Workbench.
