Recently, many research works for Pu-recycle have been done. We proposed a molecular dynamics method to have deep understandings in nuclear materials. We adopted a parallel computing technique by using an ITBL's computing environment in our simulation program because a huge amount of computations and time steps is required. We received a request from application users to incorporate a user friendly interface in a computing environment for specifying parameters in a simulation program and successive operations of parallel computation and visualization on a user's terminal. So, we have built a GUI computing environment to realize such the functionalities by using an ITBL's client API. In this paper, we report objectives of this development, implementation method of this application, and examples of the computing environment. Finally, we mention its future plan.
