Design of Science App Management Tool for Computational Science Engineering Platform

摘要

The development of open science has resulted in the sharing of a greater amount of information including research processes as well as research results. We are developing a platform, EDISON (EDucation-research Integration through Simulation on the Net) to further promote the open science practice in the fields of computational science and engineering. The EDISON platform not only provides an online service of simulations developed by computational scientists and engineers, but also an environment for sharing source codes, data, and related publications. An efficient management system for simulation software programs is required to ensure the service quality of the EDISON platform. This study proposes a registration and management system that introduces simulation software programs developed by computational researchers to EDISON. The developer can register the simulation software programs on EDISON using our system, and establish an effective web-based simulation environment without administrator intervention.
