The StormCast API. Specification of software interfaces in StormCast 2.1

Abstract

This report presents the software architecture in the StormCast meteorological workbench. The focus is on the software interfaces in StormCast version 2.1. For each layer in the architecture the functionality, the call structure, the interfaces, the event diagrams and test data are described. In addition, further works are discussed. The identication of software interfaces are based on the StormCast prototype implementations and evaluations. The motivation is to derive an application program interface (API) to StormCast.
