Description:

The simulation metadata specification needs to have a way to specify the algorithm to use, as well
as parameters of this such as error control, step size controls, and sub-algorithms such as linear
solvers.
Ideally, it should be possible to identify the exact algorithm that is used, but allow for software
which doesn't know this algorithm to fall back onto another similar algorithm. We may be able to use
part of an existing ontology for the classification of numerical methods, but we still need to
decide which terms are defined for use in the simulation metadata.
