Building an ecosystem of functional libraries for the OpenMOLE scientific platform: from batch jobs to automatic model parameter tuning

A SkillsCast for this session is not available.

OpenMOLE is a scientific platform for parameter tuning and model exploration that has helped many scientists better understand their models https://next.openmole.org/communications.html

The platform sits on an ecosystem of libraries ranging from:

• GridScale: to interact with distributed HPC environments, currently re-designed around the FreeMonad pattern (https://github.com/openmole/gridscale)

• MGO: a purely functional scala library implementing state-of-the-art evolutionary / genetic algorithms (https://github.com/openmole/mgo)

• Scaladget: a scala facade to some popular javascript libraries (Bootstrap, D3) running on ScalaJS (https://github.com/openmole/scaladget)

• FreeDSL: a practical effect composition library based on abstract wrapping type and the free monad (https://github.com/ISCPIF/freedsl)

This talk will introduce you with some of the elements of the OpenMOLE ecosystem, show how they can benefit other projects and highlight some of their design choices.
