Project summary; 'Elephant-Nest-Integration', 'Modular Science', 'SIMS-LS'.
Figure \ref{fig:ov} shows an overview, with a detailed description of each component below.

  \caption[]{Project overview. The Server (3) provides different Elephant functions for analysis. Clients (2) can request those.
  Data is then taken from the simulation output stream (1), stored in a buffer (4), further processed depending on the function and forwarded to HPC resources (5).}

\section{Details}
\label{sec:det}

\begin{enumerate}
 \item[(1)] Input data stream from simulation:
  \begin{itemize}
   \item Protocol -> MUSIC (?)
   \item 
   \item Handle input
   \item Handle data loss
  \end{itemize}

 \item[(2)] Multiple Clients:
  \begin{itemize}
    \item Multithreading (in Python?) -> multiprocessing
    \item Protocol
  \end{itemize}

 \item[(3)] Server:
  \begin{itemize}
   \item Server architecture
   \item Running where? -> (for now) running on SC (e.g. Jureca)
   \item Logging
  \end{itemize}

 \item[(4)] Buffer:
  \begin{itemize}
   \item Buffer-size -> (for now) expect buffer to handle all data, buffer large enough for complete simulation output
   \item Extract relevant data for each Elephant analysis provided.
   \item Input conversion -> Simulation output to Elephant input (NEO Framework) 
  \end{itemize}

 \item[(5)] HPC:
  \begin{itemize}
   \item Connect to SC resources -> (for now) server running directly on SC (e.g. Jureca)
  \end{itemize}

\end{enumerate}
