Simulation Factory is an effective method for controlling all facets of a Cactus simulation. It provides a central facility for managing an authoritative source tree, controlling and providing remote access to many commonly-used HPC machines including LONI and the TeraGrid, builds and compiles a Cactus source tree into many independent configurations, and can also manage a simulation all the way from creation to output.

Getting Started

Simulation Factory is available from svn. It can be checked out with the following command

svn co https://svn.cct.lsu.edu/repos/numrel/simfactory/branches/PYSIM_2010
