Abstract :
The purpose of the Fusion Simulation Project is to develop a predictive capability for integrated modeling of magnetically confined burning plasmas. In support of this mission, the Center for Plasma Edge Simulation has developed an End-to-end Framework for Fusion Integrated Simulation (EFFIS) that combines critical computer science technologies in an effective manner to support leadership class computing and the coupling of complex plasma physics models. We describe here the main components of EFFIS and how they are being utilized to address our goal of integrated predictive plasma edge simulation.
