                                      present, computer models do exist for the
                                      four regions where space weather originates,
                                      and interacts with Earth (Sun, solar wind,
                                      magnetosphere, upper atmosphere), but the
                                      models do not yet include all the physical
                                      processes involved. Nor are the models
                                      integrated: able to  interact
                                      with each other as the phenomena actually
                                      do in space. The models are based on the
                                      physical principles that underlie the processes
                                      common to a specific region – and
                                      consequently, in their present state of
                                      development, they are limited to simulating
                                      only that region. 
                                  CISM’s
                                      first effort will be to integrate, for
                                      the first time, existing simulations of
                                      the four regions of space weather activity.
                                      A model having such complexity, requires
                                  a massive computer capability.
