It includes programs to analyze and display surface, upper-air, and gridded data, including model output. There are very general programs to list, edit, and plot data on maps, to display profiles and time series, to draw and fill contours, to draw streamlines, to plot symbols for clouds, sky cover, and pressure tendency, and draw cross sections in the case of gridded data and sounding data. In addition, there are Barnes objective analysis programs to grid surface and upper-air data. The programs include the capabilities to derive meteorological parameters from those found in the dataset, to perform vertical interpolations of sounding data to different coordinate systems, and to compute an extensive set of gridded diagnostic quantities by specifying various nested combinations of scalars and vector arithmetic, algebraic, and differential operators. The GEMPAK 5.1 graphics/transformation subsystem, GEMPLT, provides device-independent graphics. GEMPLT also has the capability to display output in a variety of map projections or overlaid on satellite imagery. GEMPAK 5.1 is written in FORTRAN 77 and C-language for computers running the UNIX operating system. During installation and normal use, this package occupies approximately 100Mb of hard disk space. GEMPAK includes drivers for several graphic output systems including X11, Sun GKS, PostScript (color and monochrome), Silicon Graphics, and others. A color monitor is recommended for displaying maps on video display devices. Data for rendering regional maps is included with this package. The standard distribution medium for GEMPAK 5.1 is a .25 inch streaming magnetic tape cartridge in UNIX tar format. GEMPAK, inventory number GSC-13402, is available by license for a period of 10 years to approved licensees. The licensed program product includes the GEMPAK source code, sample data and one set of supporting documentation. Ten year license, $5,000. ADA TO X-WINDOW The X-Window system and its constituent program libraries were developed almost entirely in the C programming language and, therefore, there are well defined C language interface libraries for all X-Windows functions. The X-Windows programming environment consists of three layers of program libraries: the low level X library, the intermediate layer Xt Toolkit Intrinsics library, and one of various high level widget libraries, with OSF Motif being the most common widget library. ADA to X-Window Bindings was developed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory to provide Ada programmers with complete interfaces to the Xt Intrinsics and OSF Motif toolkits. The Xt and Motif programming libraries consist of nearly three hundred C language functions and a large number of C language structure definitions and constants. In order to provide an "Ada view" of Xt and Motif, an entire Ada programming layer was added which hides the interface to the C level libraries. A separate Ada procedure and type definition was written for each C language function and structure definition. The specification presented to the Ada programmer consists almost entirely of Ada types and structures. An effort was made to minimize the amount of type conversions between Ada and C views for which the applications programmer would have to be responsible. This package, inventory number NPO-18760, is written in ADA and C-language for use with UNIX systems running MIT's X-Window System, Version 11 Revision 4, with the OSF/Motif widget set. Two separate versions of the package are included, one for Motif 1.0 and one for Motif 1.1. This package was developed under ULTRIX on a DECstation 3100 and is designed to be UNIX independent. For some UNIX systems the code may require minor modifications. The standard distribution medium for this package is a .25 streaming magnetic tape cartridge in UNIX tar format. Program $500; documentation $13. HP PAINTJET TOOL A graphics printing utility, IMPRINT, has been developed for NASA Marshall Space Flight Center to print raster files to the Hewlett Packard Paintjet color printer. IMPRINT reads bitmapped images from files on a UNIX based graphics workstation and prints out three different types of images: wireframe images, solid color images, or gray scale images. The types of images produced include black and white for printing contour wireframes, a gray scale for printing continuous tone images, and a random gray scale for low resolution gray scale images. IMPRINT also prints using a default palette of solid colors for color prints. IMPRINT, inventory number MFS-28526, is written in C-language for use on IRIS 4D series computers running the IRIX operating system with an HP Paintjet printer. This program is written in ANSI C and may not compile with some UNIX compilers that do not meet ANSI standards. It has been implemented using the MIPS C compiler v3.0 and v3.3. IMPRINT supports raster images only. The standard distribution medium for this package is a .25 inch streaming magnetic tape cartridge in UNIX tar format. Program $250; documentation $13. PLASTIC DEFORMATION Life prediction of components undergoing plastic deformation requires accurate plastic solution of relevant finite element models. The SOLAS system from NASA Marshall Space Flight Center is designed to handle 2D quasi-static thermoplastic problems. SOLAS builds a model in ANSYS. SOLAS provides tools for temperature transient splicing and interpolation as well as load step selection. Three solvers, ANSYS, ABAQUS and APSAC can be used to compute the mechanical response. Since the APSAC bandwidth limitation may preclude the use of a typically irregular mesh resulting from the solid model meshing, PATRAN is used to minimize the bandwidth. In addition to solution verification, SOLAS can also be used to compare the resource needs of each solver. Thus the program helps to select the code and element type to be used with multiple duty cycle analyses. An available solution-code-independent post-processing listing of element quantities for generats a unified element result listing as well as a file containing the signed equivalent stresses, equivalent strains and the multiaxiality factor parameter. Signing of the equivalent quantities can be done either by the maximum principal quantities or by the sign along a user defined direction. SOLAS, inventory number MFS-29934, is written in UNIX shell script and FORTRAN 77 for computers running the UNIX operating system. It requires input from ANSYS, ABAQUS, or APSAC. It has been successfully implemented on Sun series computers running SunOS and CRAY series computers running UNICOS. Several programs, such as the translators, as well as utilities to set ANSYS parameters outside of ANSYS, to generate post processing decks for ABAQUS and APSAC and the code independent listing generating programs are written in FORTRAN. These can be used on non-UNIX systems; their operation has been verified on IBM PCs and compatibles with MS FORTRAN 5.0 and on CDC NOS-VE. The standard distribution medium for SOLAS is a .25 inch streaming magnetic tape cartridge in UNIX tar format. Program $350; documentation $13. MISSION PLANNING IMP is a simulation language that is used at NASA Marshall Space Flight Center to model missions around the Earth, Moon, Mars, or other planets. It has been used to model missions for the Saturn Program, Apollo Program, Space Transportation System, Space Exploration Initiative, and Space Station Freedom. IMP allows a user to control the mission being simulated through a large event/maneuver menu. Up to three spacecraft may be used: a main, a target and an observer. The simulation may begin at liftoff, suborbital, or orbital. IMP incorporates a Fehlberg seventh order, thirteen evaluation Runge-Kutta integrator with error and step-size control to numerically integrate the equations of motion. The user may choose oblate or spherical gravity for the central body (Earth, Mars, Moon or other) while a spherical model is used for the gravity of an additional perturbing body. Sun gravity and pressure and Moon gravity effects are user- selectable. Earth/Mars atmospheric effects can be included. The optimum thrust guidance parameters are calculated automatically. Events/maneuvers may involve many velocity changes, and these velocity changes may be impulsive or of finite duration. Aerobraking to orbit is also an option. Other simulation options include line-of-sight communication guidelines, a choice of propulsion systems, a soft landing on the Earth or Mars, and rendezvous with a target vehicle. The code is double precision. IMP, inventory number MFS-28606, is written in FORTRAN 77 for DEC VAX series computers running VMS. The optional TEKPLOT plotting module requires the VAX TEK library. The standard distribution medium for this program is a 9track 1600 BPI magnetic tape in DEC VAX BACKUP format. It is also available on a TK50 tape cartridge in DEC VAX BACKUP format. An electronic copy of the documentation is included on the distribution medium. Although IMP was originally developed in the 1970s, the author has continued to use and refine it. Program $1,000; documentation $37. NQS for the RS/6000 Originating from NASA Ames Research Center, the Network Queuing System, NQS, is a versatile batch and device queuing facility for a single Unix computer or a group of networked computers. With the Unix operating system as a common interface, the user can invoke the NQS collection of user-space programs to move batch and device jobs freely around the different computer hardware tied into the network. NQS provides facilities for remote queuing, request routing, remote status, queue status controls, batch request resource quota limits, and remote output return. NQS is written in C language. The generic UNIX version (ARC- 13179) has been successfully implemented on a variety of UNIX platforms, including Sun3 and Sun4 series computers, SGI IRIS computers running IRIX 3.3, DEC computers running ULTRIX 4.1, AMDAHL computers running UTS 1.3 and 2.1, platforms running BSD 4.3 UNIX. This new IBM RS/6000 AIX version (COS-10042) is a vendor port. The standard distribution medium for either machine version of NQS 2.0 is a 60Mb, QIC-24, .25 inch streaming magnetic tape cartridge in UNIX tar format. Upon request the generic UNIX version (ARC-13179) can be provided in UNIX tar format on alternate media. An electronic copy of the NQS 2.0 documentation is included on the program media. Program $6,000; documentation $21. **************************************************************** CALENDAR **************************************************************** SUPERCOMPUTING '92 Pat Mortenson of COSMIC and Ed Kidd of ESTSC will distribute literature in the research exhibit area at Supercomputing '92, Minneapolis, November 16-20.
