SCEC software engineering group has established standard practices for use when releasing new versions of publicly distributed scientific software. These practices are based on "best practices" for scientific software development established on SCEC's CSEP project and on SCEC's UseIT SCEC-VDO project.  
 
  
Every SCEC/CME project that releases SCEC-developed and SCEC-supported software to the community is expected to provide the following materials before the software is released, unless there is a good reason not to follow these guidelines. Before the SCEC/CME software development group distributes a new version of software, every software project must have the following items:

# A public SCECpedia entry that provides and overview of the software project, the capabilities of the software, and a software release history.

SCEC Community Modeling Environment CME Project researchers have developed a group of inter-related ground motion and seismic hazard modeling software tools that the National Science Foundation SI2 Project describes as a software ecosystem. Funding for this software development work comes from the National Science Foundation (NSF), W. M. Keck Foundation, Pacific Gas and Electric, and other funding sources. The links below provide access to the currently maintained SCEC open-source scientific software distributions.

Active CME Scientific Software Platforms

SCEC software development staff converts scientific software used by an individual research into scientific software used for community research. CME Project software developers integrate complex scientific codes together into larger computational systems that we call a Computational Platforms. Each SCEC computational platform is designed to reliably perform some useful or valuable research calculation. SCEC platforms include dynamic rupture, wave propagation, standard probabilistic seismic hazard calculations, and physics-based wave propagation simulations. In some cases, SCEC provides source code distributions of computational platforms for use by the SCEC community.
