Que simplemente a servido para catapultar la eficiencia en el estudio de esta área, donde, solo algunos se atreven a tocar. Pros Al implementar SALOME en las actividades de investigación, es cada vez mas común que sobre este gire el desarrollo de la misma, dado que desde el mismo, se construye el dominio computacional, se programan las actividades, se eligen y ajustan los modelos de solución, se administra el manejo de cada simulación y se da la visualización de los resultados. Todo ello, gracias a la integración de cada una de sus herramientas, y al rápido y efectivo manejo de los datos. Cons Un modulo que recientemente he estado manejando es ADAO, cuya área de trabajo es la asimilación de datos (data assimilation). Al iniciar la herramienta y crear un nuevo caso, la presentación de sus parámetros y propiedades a modificar, hace que resulte verdaderamente un reto ingresar estos datos de manera correcta, lo cual, hace que también resulte común generar errores momento de exportar el caso a un esquema YACS.
