Summary Also known as Model type Model part of larger framework Note on status model Date note status model Technical specs Supported platforms Windows Other platform Programming language Matlab Other program language Code optimized Multiple processors implemented Nr of distributed processors Nr of shared processors Start year development 2008 Does model development still take place? Yes If above answer is no, provide end year model development Code development status When did you indicate the 'code development status'? Model availability As code Source code availability (Or provide future intension) Through owner"Through owner" is not in the list (Through web repository, Through CSDMS repository) of allowed values for the "Source code availability" property.
