The Computational Infrastructure of Geodynamics (CIG) will develop, support and disseminate community-accessible software for the greater geodynamics community from model developers to the broad spectrum of end-users. Software will support a tremendous variety of geodynamic research from mantle and core dynamics, to crustal and earthquake dynamics, to magma migration and seismology. To be successful, the CIG will develop and maintain a high level of community participation across this research spectrum to ensure:? Reusable, well-documented geodynamics software that can be demonstrated to be keeping pace with developments in hardware.? Basic software building blocks from which state-of-the-art modeling codes could be quickly assembled;? Extension of existing software frameworks to interlink multiple codes and data through a superstructure layer;? Strategic partnerships with the larger world of computational science and geoinformatics to ensure ?best practices? community-specific tool kits for scientific computations in solid-Earth sciences;? Specialized training and workshops for both the geodynamics and larger Earth Science communities; and? Hardware resources sufficient to support and facilitate software development and community use.

地球动力学计算基础设施 (CIG) 将为从模型开发人员到广大最终用户的更大地球动力学社区开发、支持和传播社区可访问的软件。 软件将支持各种各样的地球动力学研究，从地幔和地核动力学，到地壳和地震动力学，再到岩浆迁移和地震学。 为了取得成功，CIG 将在整个研究领域发展并维持高水平的社区参与，以确保：？ 可重复使用、记录齐全的地球动力学软件，可以证明与硬件的发展保持同步。 可以快速组装最先进的建模代码的基本软件构建块；？ 扩展现有软件框架，通过上层建筑互连多个代码和数据；？ 与更大的计算科学和地理信息学领域建立战略伙伴关系，以确保“最佳实践”用于固体地球科学中科学计算的特定社区工具包；？ 为地球动力学和更大的地球科学界提供专门培训和讲习班；和？ 硬件资源足以支持和促进软件开发和社区使用。
