Abstract

HUBzero serves up simulation tools online that you can access via an ordinary web browser. Where do the tools come from? From people like you, working throughout the world on research and educational activities, wanting to give others access to their modeling codes. Anyone can upload their own code into a hub environment and publish a tool for a limited group of colleagues or for the entire world to use. The code can be kept protected or given out as open source. This series of talks shows you exactly how to do that, starting with an overview of the Rappture toolkit, showing you how to use workspaces for code development, and providing an overview of the tool development process. This is a good starting point for all new tool developers, to help them understand the overall process.
