HomePageThis is the new website for CardioWave, a modular simulation system for the Bidomain Equations. CardioWave is designed to be truly "state of the art". It can handle semi-implicit time-integration, complex membrane models, 3-D irregular geometries with arbitrary anisotropy and tissue inhomogeneity, all in a data-parallel fashion. By packaging different parts of the code into self-contained subprograms, we reduce the overall programming effort needed to implement a given simulation by the end-researcher. A biologist working on newer, more accurate cellular models, for example, does not have to become a numerical analyst or parallel programmer. Similarly, the numerical analysts can step back from some of the biological details and focus more on the matrix properties or mechanisms to improve convergence of the linear solvers. CardioWave allows computer programmers, with potentially no experience in either the biology or the numerics, to step in and optimize code sections for speed and reduce memory overheads with more efficient data structures. This website is under continual and heavy development, so please be patient! This system uses a "Wiki" to manage it's information, so we hope it makes keeping everything up-to-date easier. If you're not familiar with a Wiki, see WikiWikiWeb. Once you sign up for an account, you can leave bug reports and other items in our user forums. The site is broken into several main parts:
