Interoperability of Tools at the CCMC

The CCMC has a diverse set of tools in many languages that support utilization of simulation outputs accessible through CCMC interactive archives. Some model output post-processing and analysis tools are delivered to tCCMC by the community. One such model output post-processing/utilization tool developed by the CCMC is the open source Kamodo package. Kamodo is developed primarily in Python (with some C) and has already established strong interoperability with other Python libraries inside PyHC and out. While that interoperability is important, interoperability with other languages and tools is as important. Many models are written in Fortran or C, and their ability to pull in data from a Python tool or export directly to other analysis software in a different language will greatly increase scientific productivity. Interoperability within Python is important, but broader interoperability is just as important.
