Since the start of the development of the LM, which is now called the COSMO-Model, a huge amount of time has been spent for implementing and using the corresponding software. And nowadays we not only use the COSMO-Model, but also other software within the COnsortium for Small-scale MOdeling, COSMO. Furthermore, the software is also used by other scientific partners, and also by other operational centers. Therefore it is absolutely necessary to develop a high-quality, reliable, portable and maintainable code.
To this end we developed the COSMO Standards for Source Code Development. The aim of this document is to provide some guidelines for several aspects of the development and programming process and should serve the following goals:
The first official version of these Standards were released September 2011 and they shall now continuously be updated and adjusted to future needs.
The actual (but also former) version of the Standards can be downloaded here.
