Abstract
The two versions of the FESOM2 ocean and sea-ice model used as the Fortran reference in the paper An Ocean Model Ported by a Large Language Model: Experience and Lessons from FESOM2 (Fortran to C to C++/Kokkos), from github.com/FESOM/fesom2. fesom2-llmport-fortran-reference-9271ae92.zip: tag llmport-fortran-reference (commit 9271ae92), the tree both ports were translated from: upstream d729beaa plus the cold-start wind-rotation fix and the reference-dump instrumentation used for the per-kernel comparisons. fesom2-llmport-fortran-reference-detfill-e63430b3.zip: tag llmport-fortran-reference-detfill (commit e63430b3), the same tree plus the deterministic initial-condition fill (namelist switch ic_extrap_det), as compiled for the 1958-2020 reference hindcast. A later revision of this change was merged into FESOM2 as pull request 979. Built with Intel oneAPI 2022.0.1 and Open MPI 4.1.2 on Levante (DKRZ).
The results are packaged in the Greenfield Startup Model (GSM), which explains the priority of startups to release the product as quickly as possible, and the need to shorten time-to-market, by speeding up the development through low-precision engineering activities.
