At run-time, OASIS3-MCT performs parallel exchange of coupling data between parallel components and sub-components and allows remapping (interpolation), time integration or accumulation and other transformations of these coupling fields.
This chapter describes how to adapt the component codes to couple them through OASIS3-MCT.
OASIS3-MCT supports coupling exchanges between parallel components and sub-components deployed in diverse configurations; the different possibilities and how to use the OASIS3-MCT library accordingly are described in section 2.1. The OASIS3-MCT Application Programming Interface (API) includes different classes of modules or routines that are described in details in section 2.2. Finally, in section 2.3, different coupling algorithms are illustrated and details on how to reproduce them with OASIS3-MCT are provided, together with more information on the LAG and SEQ indices.
