Bellerophon Java Swing Desktop Client Application
Bellerophon enables real-time visualization and software engineering of massively parallel astrophysics simulations.
Core-collapse supernovae are nature’s mechanism for producing the elements heavier than oxygen, which make up our bodies and the world around us. By designing and implementing multi-dimensional, multi-physics high performance computing applications, scientists can leverage the power of supercomputing platforms to explore this phenomenon. The complexity, pace of ongoing development and widely distributed collaborators of these astrophysics simulations present many challenges. In order to address those challenges, the Bellerophon software system provides software engineering, real-time visualization, and data analysis of high performance computing simulations and seamlessly integrates with multiple computing centers such as the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center. Pandia Software currently maintains and enhances Bellerophon with collaborators from the ORNL Physics Division and the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility.
