Table of contents

Minutes

1. Minutes from previous OATC meeting

There were no comments to the minutes from last meeting

3. OpenMI 2.0 Issues

5. OATC Procedures

There were not changes to the OATC Procedures. However, there is still a task to review and update these.

6. www.OpenMI.org and wiki.OpenMI.org

6.1 The new wiki

It has been decided by the OAEC to move the contents of the www.openmi.org to a wiki hosted by Deltares. Jaco has already organized the fist steps, which involved setting up the new wiki space and installing various plug-ins. The task in now on Jan to move the content of the current wiki mirror to the new wiki space and subsequently work on the layout.

6.1 The OATC wiki

At the OATC meeting 19 we decided to review and update the how-to-pages on the wiki. The wiki pages were distributed between Adrian, Stef, and Jan. Jan has done his task, but pages assigned to Adrian and Stef still needs to be updated. A new deadline was set for this task: March 10th 2009. (see also source forge OpenMI tasks .

7. Miscellaneous issues

7.1 OpenMI goes Linux

The following lines describe the development status of the linux portation of

7.1.1. Porting the OpenMI environment

7.1.2. Porting the Fortran Code from Compaq to ifort on Windows

Generation of an ifort gei.win.dll and a main program and running the 31 test cases.    ... done

7.1.3.Porting the ifort Code from Windows to Linux

Linux ifort compilation of the BAW engine gei.xe.dll on a 64bit system.  ... done

7.1.4. Porting GEIWrapper to Linux

Portation of GEIWrapper (the C#-Wrapper around the engine gei.xe.dll) ... done

7.1.5. Porting WLDelftWrapper to Linux

Original strategy: It could be reasonable to port the OpenMI compliant WLDelftWrapper to Linux (Deltares). Alternatively, Deltares could offer a Linux engine and the information how to access it from a Windows WLDelftWrapper.
New: Meanwhile fast multicore pc cpus made a linux WLDelftWrapper less important for the BAW, see 6.1.7.

7.1.6. Test of a composition

7.1.7. Test System

The BAW test system is a linux workstation with one Intel Xeon Dual Core Processor and SLED 10. We use the 64 bit instead of the planned 32 bit mode, since our workstations as well as our hpc cluster work in 64bit mode.

7.1.8 Merging the OpenMI Linux version into the 1.4.1 branch on source forge
Adrian will create a list of thing to do with respect to merging the Linux version of the GUI into the 1.4 branch after the 1.4.1 is released. This list will be mailed to Peter, and Peter will subsequently take care that the Linux version is available on source forge.

Peter will put the Linux How-to-pages on the wiki.

7.2 The OpenMI SDK and configuration editor version 1.4.1 release

Adrian will provide an updated GUI install and the zipped version of the SDK. Any remarks should be provided by January 30th .

Release notes: Everyone send contribution to the release note (look to your own commits to SVN. Send to Adrian also before January 30th.

Adrian will make sure that there is a news item on www.openmi.org which announce the 1.4.1 release.

7.3 Demonstration of Delft Shell and JGrass

Gena and Andrea gave demonstrations of Delft Shell and JGrass, respectively.
