High Performance\u00a0ATHENA<\/i> and ATLAS<\/i>\u00a0Simulation on PC under NT<\/h1>\n

The recent advances in PC hardware capability in terms of memory and CPU floating point performance has allowed the possibility of running realistic sized\u00a0ATHENA<\/i><\/b>\u00a0and\u00a0ATLAS<\/i><\/b>\u00a0problems on PCs. The Fall 1999 release of PC-TCAD will include all the important features of the latest UNIX release. A product chart showing the modules available on PC is in Figure 1.<\/p>\n

The Fall 99 PC-TCAD release is ported to Windows NT4.0. It features PC specific interactive tools based on the popular UNIX products but with the look and feel of true NT products. There is also a dedicated PC Interactive tools manual. A view of the products in action is shown in Figure 2.<\/p>\n

One of the most common concerns about\u00a0ATHENA<\/i><\/b>\u00a0and\u00a0ATLAS<\/i><\/b>\u00a0running on PC is the performance. Six examples from our standard UNIX example set were chosen. These represented a cross section of typical applications:<\/p>\n
