| Num | Label | Milestone | Expected | Certified |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1. | A | Software Engineering Plan completed. | 01/02 | 09/02 |
| 2. | E | Code baseline completed. Baseline (Round 2) coupled AGCM/OGCM code implemented on CT testbed with performance and scaling at least comparable to that at the end of Round 2. Documented source code made publicly available via the Web. |
06/02 | 01/03 |
| 3. | B | First Annual Report delivered. Submit FY02 Annual Report to CT via Web. |
08/02 | 01/03 |
| 4. | H | Design policy for interoperability and community delivery agreed on. Participate in meetings with ESMF development teams on the design of the interface between the ESMF and the AGCM/OGCM. Complete Interface Control Document defining that interface. Complete initial draft of Test Plan/Procedures for integrating the AGCM/OGCM with the ESMF. |
12/02 | 10/03 |
| 5. | F | First code improvement completed. Upgrade the parameterization of the planetary boundary layer (PBL) used in the AGCM to a version with multiple layers without loss of performance compared to E. Provide scaling curves. Documented source code made publicly available via the Web. |
04/03 | 02/04 |
| 6. | I | Interoperability prototype tested with improved codes. Complete Distributed Data Broker upgrade and development (include support for MPI and shared memory, improve performance, improve diagnostic and error handling, improve user interface) and deliver updated documentation for the Distributed Data Broker. |
07/03 | 05/04 |
| 7. | C | Second Annual Report delivered. Submit FY03 Annual Report to CT via Web. |
08/03 | 07/04 |
| 8. | G | Second code improvement completed. Upgrade OGCM POP to a near global domain (excluding both polar regions) without loss of performance compared to E. Provide scaling curves. Documented source code made publicly available via the Web. |
04/05 | 08/05 |
| 9. | J | Full interoperability demonstrated using improved codes. Use ESMF services to couple AGCM and both POP and the MIT OGCM and integrate them into the ESMF framework for performance evaluation relative to milestones E, F, and G. Update Test Plan/Procedures for integrating the AGCM/POP and AGCM/MIT OGCM with the ESMF. Prepare reports on interoperability tests and an initial User's Guide. |
04/05 | 08/05 |
| 10. | K | Customer delivery accomplished. Demonstrate ESMF functionality by analyzing the El Niño prediction capability of the AGCM coupled to POP and the MIT OGCM, in combination with NASA/JPL ocean data and optimization products.Complete User's Guide/Maintenance manual. Documented source code made publicly available via the Web. |
05/05 | 08/05 |
| 11. | D | Final Report delivered. Submit Final Report to CT via the Web. |
