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

To perform large-scale research calculations, SCEC's software development staff converts scientific software used by individual researcher into scientific software used for community research. CME Project software developers integrate complex scientific codes together into larger computational systems called Computational Platforms. Each SCEC computational platform is designed to reliably perform some useful or valuable research calculation. In some cases, the large-scale computational tools customized to run efficiently on current supercomputers. Distribution of these codes require coordination and technical support from SCEC.
