A Pattern Language for Scientific Simulations.

Abstract:

For computer-based simulations to be scientifically useful and scientifically credible, they need to be developed to high standards, and argued fit-for-purpose. The CoSMoS project has developed an approach to support such development, and codified its approach in a pattern language. Here we overview this pattern language, and discuss several example simulation development patterns and antipatterns.
