Scientific software modeling

In order to understand the characteristics of state-of-the-art scientific software, a description of the facilities of the RS/1 system is presented in this section as an example of the kind of software now available to support scientific data management needs. All facilities are based in a single integrated system. No extra steps are needed, for example, to use tabular data as the basis for statistics or to graph the results of modeling. 

II. Accelrys is a computational science company that develops and delivers scientific software applications and services to solve R D problems. They provide simulation and informatics software as well as a computational portfolio that combines modeling and visualization software to predict properties and interpret the behavior of molecules and materials and services. They adhere to an open, component-based software platform that can run across the network on Windows, Linux, or UNIX servers.

Profile CCG develops and markets scientific software for protein modeling, 3D bioinformatics, cheminformatics, molecular modeling, combinatorial chemistry, and high-throughput screening. 

The emergence of personal computing toward the end of the 1980s marks the beginning of widespread CFD-based software modeling tools. Such software tools, popular in scientific and engineering communities, are commercial software tools, such as ACE+ Suite, ANSYS CFX , ANSYS Fluent , ANSYS Multiphysics , COMSOL Multiphysics , FLOW-3D , STAR-CD and STAR-CCM+ , and an open-source software tool OpenFOAM . Other CFD-based software tools, such as AVL FIRE or ANSYS Polyflow , are also available on the market, but they are...

Numerous mathematical models have been developed by various research groups for the analysis of the injection molding process and have been implemented into commercid and scientific software. While outstanding improvements in the simulation of shrinkage and warpage codd be observed during the past decades [1-5], the simulation results mostly do not reflect the reality. Amongst others the insufficient description of the material data, especially the insufficient description of the specific volume is critical. 

Supercomputers together with software to use them effectively, provide capabilities to solve important problems that combine both scientific complexity and engineering practicality. The supercomputing environment allows a level of sophistication in physical models that is not possible analytically and is prohibitively expensive without supercomputing speed and storage capabilities. 

With the widespread commercialization of molecular modeling software in the 1980s, came both a boon and a bane to the computational chemist and pharmaceutical companies. The boon was that the software vendors sent marketing people to individual companies as well as to scientific meetings. The marketeers would extol the virtues of the programs they were pushing. 

Degradation rates were determined for the reported data using a nonlinear regression of conventional first-order kinetic equations. The software used for this fitting procedure was Model Manager, Version 1.0 (Cherwell Scientific, 1999). 

This chapter does not cover these classical approaches but rather focuses on basic principles, evolution and scientific applications based on specialized pseudoreceptor modeling software packages.
