[http://openfresco.berkeley.edu OpenFresco] (the Open-source Framework for Experimental Setup and Control) is an environment-independent software framework, based on modern object-oriented software design and programming methodologies. The software connects finite element models with control and data acquisition systems in an extensible manner to facilitate conducting local and geographically distributed hybrid simulations of structural systems.
