The Eurace@Unibi Model

This is the source code of the Eurace@Unibi Model.

Version history:

1.0.0 (April 2014)

1.0.1 (April 2016)

Dependencies

GCC 4.4 or higher (or other C compiler)

GSL 2.4 or higher (GNU Scientific Library)

FLAME XParser 0.17.1 (https://github.com/FLAME-HPC/xparser/archive/0.17.1.tar.gz)

FLAME Libmboard 0.3.1 (https://github.com/FLAME-HPC/libmboard/archive/0.3.1.zip)

Pre-installed FLAME libraries and model source code

There is a virtual appliance with everything pre-compiled: the FLAME components XParser and Libmboard, and the model source code (currently v1.0).

Dependency: Oracle VirtualBox (https://www.virtualbox.org/), or any other virtualization client for ova files.

Installation of FLAME libraries on stand-alone systems and building the model

Step 2-4 (installation of FLAME libraries) can also be run via a script ./scripts/install_flame.sh.

1. Prepare system requirements

Make sure to have cunit and gsl installed.

  • On Debian-based systems: sudo apt-get install libcunit1 libcunit1-doc libcunit1-dev libgsl-dev.
  • On macOS: brew install cunit gsl.
  • On Windows (TODO: test on appveyor): TODO.

2. Install libmboard

On top of the repo root directory, download libmboard 0.3.1 (https://github.com/FLAME-HPC/libmboard/archive/0.3.1.tar.gz) and extract the tarball

mkdir libmboard
cd libmboard-0.3.1
chmod +x autogen.sh
./autogen.sh
# Remove --disable-parallel if you have mpi installed
./configure --prefix=$(cd ../libmboard; pwd) --disable-parallel
make
make install
# back to the repo root directory
cd ..

3. Install xparser

Download xparser 0.17.1 (https://github.com/FLAME-HPC/xparser/archive/0.17.1.tar.gz) and extract to xparser/ directory on top of the repo root directory.

cd xparser
make
# back to the repo root directory
cd ..

4. Generate makefile for the model

cd xparser
./xparser ../eurace_model.xml
# back to the repo root directory
cd ..

5. Build the model

Be sure to replace LIBMBOARD_DIR in Makefile from /usr/local to $(PWD)/libmboard. Finally, run make, which should compile everything if the previous steps are executed correctly.
