ABSTRACT

We present the development of an integrated extendable Web-based simulation environment for computational science and engineering called Computational Science and Engineering Online (CSEO). CSEO is a collaboratory that allows computational scientists to perform research using state-of-the-art application tools, to query data from personal or public databases, to document results in an electronic notebook, to discuss results with colleagues using different communication tools, and to access grid- computing resources from a web browser. Currently, CSEO provides an integrated environment for multiscale modeling of complex reacting systems and biological systems. A unique feature of CSEO is in its framework that allows data to flow from one application to another in a transparent manner.
