  78
  79 <p>Salome Study Manager (SIMAN) is a client \96 server application for managing
  80  simulation studies created in various Salome modules or other applications.
  81  <br>&nbsp;</p>
  82
  83 <p>Namely, SIMAN provides users with the possibility to:</p>
  84
  85 <ul type="square" class="whs1">
  86
  87         <li class=kadov-p><p>Collect all simulation data (specifications, geometries,
  88  meshes, boundary conditions, calculation results, reports, etc.) produced
  89  according to the CEA study workflow.</p></li>
  90
  91         <li class=kadov-p><p>&nbsp;Track
  92  the evolution of on-going studies (progress of studies, state of documents,
  93  design choices, history of modifications, etc.)</p></li>
  94
  95         <li class=kadov-p><p>Capitalize the problem solutions and store such
  96  knowledge as best practices, limitations and metrics.</p></li>
  97
  98         <li class=kadov-p><p>Archive and share these studies and knowledge
  99  into a centralized repository providing advanced search.</p></li>
 100 </ul>
 101
 102 <p>&nbsp;</p>

 104 <p><img src="image001.jpg" x-maintain-ratio="TRUE" width="1019px" height="640px" border="0" class="img_whs2"></p>
 105
 106 <p>The usual user interaction with SIMAN and Salome goes as follows:</p>
 107
 108 <p>&nbsp;</p>
 109
 110 <ul type="square" class="whs1">
 111
 112         <li class=kadov-p><p class="whs3">Start a SIMAN session;</p></li>
 113
 114         <li class=kadov-p><p class="whs3">Create a study;</p></li>
 115
 116         <li class=kadov-p><p class="whs3">Initialize the activities,
 117  for example, import the requirements, write &nbsp;the
 118  specifications and create the geometry;</p></li>
 119
 120         <li class=kadov-p><p class="whs3">Check out the study
 121  scenario to launch SALOME opening the corresponding SALOME Study and the
 122  geometry previously imported into it;</p></li>
 123
 124         <li class=kadov-p><p class="whs3">Continue working
 125  with SALOME, for example, mesh the geometry, set the boundary conditions,
 126  create a YACS calculation scheme;</p></li>
 127
 128         <li class=kadov-p><p class="whs3">Check-in the scenario
 129  study to save the result back to SIMAN and close SALOME;</p></li>
 130
 131         <li class=kadov-p><p class="whs3">Complete the metadata
 132  study information by adding simulation contexts and various comments such
 133  as design choices, issues, etc.</p></li>
