The NMM Application  (with one or more models) is used to describe the grouping models/experiments/simulations.

It is envisioned that the scientist would create a NMM Application XML file to "bin" or "wrap" a set of models into one application.

• Information Properties:
  general information about the application(e.g. name, desctiption, application type (ensemble, perturbed physics), application start and end dates, contact, documentation )
• One ID for each of the models in the application
• any application output - such as ensemble statistics
