Subsections
IMPORTANT: Use of explicit Initialize Phase Definition versions and phase labels is deprecated - this section is provided only for reference for NUOPC caps that still use the IPD syntax. See the section on Semantic Specialization Labels for the preferred method of specializing NUOPC caps.
The interaction between NUOPC compliant components during the initialization process is regulated by the Initialize Phase Definition or IPD. The IPDs are versioned, with a higher version number indicating backward compatibility with all previous versions.
There are two perspectives of looking at the IPD. From the driver perspective the IPD regulates the sequence in which it must call the different phases of the Initialize() routines of its child components. To this end the generic NUOPC_Driver component implements support for IPDs up to a version specified in the API documentation.
The other angle of looking at the IPD is from the driver's child components. From this perspective the IPD assigns specific meaning to each initialize phase. The child components of a driver can be divided into two groups with respect to the meaning the IPD assigns to each initialize phase. In one group are the model, mediator, and driver components, and in the other group are the connector components. Child components publish their available initialize phases through the InitializePhaseMap attribute.
The driver also calls into its own internal initialize methods. This allows the driver to participate in the initialization of its children in a structured fashion. The internal initialization phases of a driver are published via the InternalInitializePhaseMap attribute.
The following tables document the meaning of each initialization phase of the available IPD versions for the child components and for the driver component itself. The phases are listed in the sequence in which the driver calls them.

- IPDv00p1, IPDv01p1, IPDv02p1, IPDv03p1, IPDv04p1, IPDv05p1: Advertise fields in import and export States (REQUIRED, IMPLEMENTOR PROVIDED)
- Advertise fields in import/export states using one of the two NUOPC_Advertise methods (3.9.3, 3.9.4). The methods require Standard Names for each field, and the Standard Names must appear in the NUOPC Field Dictionary or a runtime error is generated. NUOPC_Advertise accepts a TransferOfferGeomObject argument which may be one of:
- “will provide” (default) - The field will provide its own geometric object (i.e., Grid, Mesh, or LocStream)
- “can provide”- The field can provide its own geometric object, but only if the connected field in the other component will not provide it
- “cannot provide” - The field cannot provide its own geometric object. It must accept a geometric object from a connected field.
See section 2.4.7 for more details about transferring geometric objects between NUOPC components.
Memory is not allocated for advertised fields, but attributes are set on the field which can be used in later phases, especially for determining if another component can provide and/or consume the advertised field.
- IPDv00p2, IPDv01p3, IPDv02p3, IPDv03p3, IPDv04p3, IPDv05p4: Realize field providing a geometric object (REQUIRED*, IMPLEMENTOR PROVIDED)
- Realize connected import and export fields that have their TransferActionGeomObject attribute set to “provide”, i.e., that will provide their own geometric object (i.e., Grid, Mesh, or LocStream). “provide” is the default value of TransferActionGeomObject. Realize means an ESMF_Field object is created on a geometric object and memory for the field is allocated or referenced.
The NUOPC_Realize methods (3.9.22, 3.9.23, 3.9.24, 3.9.25, 3.9.26) are used to realize fields. Only previously advertised fields can be realized and the field's name is used to search the state for the previously advertised field.
*Note: This phase is not required if all fields are accepting a geometric object.
- IPDv03p4, IPDv04p4, IPDv05p5: Modify decomposition of accepted geometric object (OPTIONAL, IMPLEMENTOR PROVIDED)
- Optionally modify the decomposition information of any accepted geometric object by replacing the DistGrid. In the case of the Grid geometric object, this can be accomplished by retrieving the Grid (and its DistGrid) from the Field, creating a new DistGrid with modified decomposition, creating a new Grid on the new (modified) DistGrid, and then using ESMF_FieldEmptySet to replace the existing Grid with the new one.
This phase is useful when accepting a Grid from another component, but when the PET counts differ between components. In this case, a new decomposition needs to be set based on the current processor count.
- IPDv03p5, IPDv04p5, IPDv05p6: Realize fields accepting a geometric object (REQUIRED*, IMPLEMENTOR PROVIDED)
- Realize connected import and export fields that have their TransferActionGeomObject attribute set to “accept”, i.e., that will accept a geometric object from a connected field in another component. If the generic NUOPC_Connector is used, at this point the full geometric object has already been set in the field and only a call to ESMF_FieldEmptyComplete is required to allocate memory for the field.
The NUOPC_Realize methods (3.9.22, 3.9.23, 3.9.24, 3.9.25, 3.9.26) are used to realize fields. Only previously advertised fields can be realized and the field's name is used to search the state for the previously advertised field.
*Note: This phase is not required if all fields are providing a geometric object.

PROVIDED: By default check that internal Clock and incoming Clock agree on current time and that the time step of the incoming Clock is a multiple of the internal Clock time step. Under these conditions set the internal stop time to one time step interval of the incoming Clock. Otherwise exit with error, flagging an incompatibility.
- SPECIALIZATION REQUIRED/PROVIDED: label_CheckImport to check Fields in the import State.

The specialization method can change aspects of the internal clock, which defaults to a copy of the incoming parent clock. For example, the timeStep size may be changed and/or Alarms may be set on the clock.
The method NUOPC_CompSetClock(comp, externalClock, stabilityTimeStep) (3.6.38) can be used to set the internal clock as a copy of externalClock, but with a timeStep that is less than or equal to the stabilityTimeStep. At the same time it ensures that the timeStep of the external clock is a multiple of the timeStep of the internal clock. If the stabilityTimeStep argument is not provided then the internal clock will simply be set as a copy of the external clock.
OPTIONAL, IMPLEMENTOR PROVIDED
Called from: IPDv00p4, IPDv01p5, IPDv02p5, IPDv03p7, IPDv04p7, IPDv05p8

Under these conditions set the internal stop time to one time step interval of the incoming clock. Otherwise exit with error, flagging an incompatibility.
REQUIRED, NUOPC PROVIDED
Called from: default run phase
A specialization method to verify import fields before advancing in time. If not overridden, the default method verifies that all import fields are at the current time of the internal clock.
REQUIRED, IMPLEMENTOR PROVIDED
Called from: default run phase
A specialization method that advances the model forward in time by one timestep of the internal clock. This method will be called iteratively by the default run phase until reaching the stop time on the internal clock.
REQUIRED, NUOPC PROVIDED
Called from: default run phase
A specialization method to set the timestamp on export fields after the model has advanced. If not overridden, the default method sets the timestamp on all export fields to the stop time on the internal clock (which is also now the current model time).
OPTIONAL, IMPLEMENTOR PROVIDED
Called from: default finalize phase
An optional specialization method for custom finalization code and deallocations of user data structures.
INITIALIZE:

- IPDv00p3, IPDv01p4, IPDv02p4: (NUOPC PROVIDED)
- Set the Mediator internal clock as a copy of the incoming clock.
- Check compatibility, ensuring all advertised import Fields are connected.
- IPDv00p4, IPDv01p5: (NUOPC PROVIDED)
- Optional specialization to initialize export Fields: label_DataInitialize
- Time stamp Fields in import and export States for compatibility checking.
- IPDv02p5: (NUOPC PROVIDED)
- Optional specialization to initialize export Fields: label_DataInitialize
- Time stamp Fields in export State for compatibility checking.
- Set Component metadata used to resolve initialize data dependencies.
RUN:
- phase 1: (REQUIRED, NUOPC PROVIDED)
- SPECIALIZATION REQUIRED/PROVIDED: label_SetRunClock to check and set the internal Clock against the incoming Clock.
- IF (Phase specific specialization present): Execute the phase specific specialization.
- ELSE: Execute the phase independent specialization. PROVIDED: By default check that internal Clock and incoming Clock agree on current time and that the time step of the incoming Clock is a multiple of the internal Clock time step. Under these conditions set the internal stop time to one time step interval of the incoming Clock. Otherwise exit with error, flagging an incompatibility.
- SPECIALIZATION REQUIRED/PROVIDED: label_CheckImport to check Fields in the import State.
- IF (Phase specific specialization is present): Execute the phase specific specialization.
- ELSE: Execute the phase independent specialization. PROVIDED: By default check that all import Fields are at the current time of the internal Clock.
- Time stepping loop: starting at current time, running to stop time of the internal Clock.
- Timestamp the Fields in the export State according to the current time of the internal Clock.
- SPECIALIZATION REQUIRED: label_Advance to execute mediation code.
- SPECIALIZATION OPTIONAL: label_AdvanceClock to advance the current time of the internal Clock. By default (without specialization) advance the current time of the internal Clock according to the time step of the internal Clock.
- SPECIALIZATION OPTIONAL/PROVIDED: label_TimestampExport to timestamp Fields in the export State.
- IF (Phase specific specialization present): Execute the phase specific specialization.
- ELSE: Execute the phase independent specialization. PROVIDED: Timestamp all Fields in the export State according to the current time of the internal Clock when entering the RUN method.
FINALIZE:
- phase 1: (REQUIRED, NUOPC PROVIDED)
- Optional specialization to finalize custom parts of the component: label_Finalize.
INITIALIZE:
- phase 0: (REQUIRED, NUOPC PROVIDED)
- Initialize the InitializePhaseMap Attribute according to the NUOPC Initialize Phase Definition (IPD) version 04 (see section 7 for a precise definition). The default implementation sets the following mapping:
- IPDv04p1a = phase : (REQUIRED, NUOPC PROVIDED)
- IPDv04p1b = phase : (REQUIRED, NUOPC PROVIDED)
- IPDv04p2 = phase : (REQUIRED, NUOPC PROVIDED)
- IPDv04p3 = phase : (REQUIRED, NUOPC PROVIDED)
- IPDv04p4 = phase : (REQUIRED, NUOPC PROVIDED)
- IPDv04p5a = phase : (REQUIRED, NUOPC PROVIDED)
- IPDv04p5b = phase : (REQUIRED, NUOPC PROVIDED)
- IPDv01p1, IPDv02p1: (NUOPC PROVIDED)
- Construct a list of matching Field pairs between import and export State based on the StandardName Field metadata.
- Store this list of StandardName entries in the CplList attribute of the Connector Component metadata.
- IPDv01p2, IPDv02p2: (NUOPC PROVIDED)
- Allocate and initialize the internal state.
- Use the CplList attribute to construct srcFields and dstFields FieldBundles in the internal state that hold matched Field pairs.
- Set the Connected attribute to true in the Field metadata for each Field that is added to the srcFields and dstFields FieldBundles.
- IPDv01p3, IPDv02p3: (NUOPC PROVIDED)
- Use the CplList attribute to construct srcFields and dstFields FieldBundles in the internal state that hold matched Field pairs.
- Set the Connected attribute to true in the Field metadata for each Field that is added to the srcFields and dstFields FieldBundles.
- Optional specialization to precompute a Connector operation: label_ComputeRouteHandle. Simple custom implementations store the precomputed communication RouteHandle in the rh member of the internal state. More complex implementations use the state member in the internal state to store auxiliary Fields, FieldBundles, and RouteHandles.
- By default (if label_ComputeRouteHandle was not provided) precompute the Connector RouteHandle as a bilinear Regrid operation between srcFields and dstFields, with unmappedaction set to ESMF_UNMAPPEDACTION_IGNORE. The resulting RouteHandle is stored in the rh member of the internal state.
RUN:
- phase 1: (REQUIRED, NUOPC PROVIDED)
- Optional specialization to execute a Connector operation: label_ExecuteRouteHandle. Simple custom implementations access the srcFields, dstFields, and rh members of the internal state to implement the required data transfers. More complex implementations access the state member in the internal state, which holds the auxiliary Fields, FieldBundles, and RouteHandles that potentially were added during the optional label_ComputeRouteHandle method during initialize.
- By default (if label_ExecuteRouteHandle was not provided) execute the precomputed Connector RouteHandle between srcFields and dstFields.
- Update the time stamp on the Fields in dstFields to match the time stamp on the Fields in srcFields.
FINALIZE:
- phase 1: (REQUIRED, NUOPC PROVIDED)
- Optional specialization to release the custom Connector operation: label_ReleaseRouteHandle; or by default, if label_ReleaseRouteHandle was not provided, release the default Connector RouteHandle.
- Optional specialization to finalize custom parts of the component: label_Finalize.
- Internal clean-up.
