TRANSIMS simulation output subsystem for IOC-1
NM (United States) Los Alamos National Lab. (LANL), K Kerkbigler, Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, DC (United States), B Bush · 1997
The output subsystem collects data from a running microsimulation, stores the data for future use, and manages the subsequent retrieval of the data. It forms a layer separating the other subsystems from the actual data files so that the other subsystems do not need to access the data files at the physical level or deal with the physical location and organization of the files. This subsystem also allows the user to specify what data is collected and retrieved, and to filter it by space and time. The collection occurs in a distributed manner such that the subsystem`s impact on the microsimulation performance is minimized; the retrieval provides a unified view of the distributed data.
