What is DDACE?

DDACE is the Distributed Design and Analysis of Computer Experiments C++/OO software package developed at Sandia National Labs.

It can be used for:

  • design of computer experiments for parameter studies,
  • uncertainty and sensitivity analyses, and
  • automatic, simultaneous, and non-intrusive calls to applications.

What capabilities does DDACE have?

DDACE v0.9 has the following capabilities:

  • sampling methods including Latin hypercube and orthogonal arrays,
  • main effects analysis based on replications, and
  • can be run in either serial or parallel on a variety of platforms.

A prototype of DDACE has been tested successfully on a few test problems.

A public-release of DDACE v1.0 has been targeted for the end of 2002.

What should I expect in DDACE v1.0?

In addition to the capabilities in DDACE v0.9, the following features will be available:
  • a GUI using MAUI
  • new correlation calculations
  • new sampling strategies

How do I request a new feature in DDACE?

We are currently tracking new feature requests through bugzilla.
