Question: What is your relation to https://github.com/BhallaLab/moose ? #10418

The project seems to be the same, and both have recent updates. So what is the difference?

I know that it is a fork. But what is the difference between forks? If I want to create a package for FreeBSD, which one should I choose?

dschwen commented 6 years ago

Idaholab, master branch

andrsd commented 6 years ago

Hold on! There is no connection between idaholab/moose and bhallalab/moose. The idaholab one is a framework for solving PDEs, see homepage and the latter is a neural system simulator, see home page. They are not forks of each other!

Thanks for clarifying this! I totally thought that they are forks of each other. They sound really similar:

Idaholabs MOOSE is "Multiphysics Object-Oriented Simulation Environment (MOOSE)"
Bhallalabs MOOSE is "Multiscale Object-Oriented Simulation Environment"

Thanks again!

queue the lawyers!!

In case anybody is interested, Bhallalabs MOOSE is a simulator of chemical reactions. It shows graphically how concentrations of particular chemicals change overtime. They have a lot of examples based on scientific research papers. One example, for instance, shows how a reaction can be cyclical when it has a feedback loop. I didn't know before that this was even possible in chemistry! Sounds a lot like electrical circuits. -)
