Integrated <strong>modeling</strong> in magnetic fusion<br />
Integrated <strong>modeling</strong>: self-consistent interaction <strong>of</strong> specialized codes<br />
to capture complex interplay <strong>of</strong> different physical processes<br />
Manual integration <strong>of</strong> different codes is a complicated endeavor<br />
Many integrated <strong>modeling</strong> s<strong>of</strong>twares have been developed<br />
(SWIM, ONETWO, CRONOS, TRANSP, CORSICA, ITM-IT, TASK, ...)<br />
Two main categories:<br />
1 Transport solver:<br />
• External components to calculate equilibrium, sources <strong>and</strong> fluxes<br />
• Tight coupling: Data exchange at memory level<br />
2 Workflow-manager:<br />
• Data “flows” through <strong>the</strong> components<br />
• Loose coupling: Data exchange through files
