LPIC++ 1.3 SOURCE CODE DISTRIBUTION
===================================
LPIC++ is a one-dimensional relativistic electromagnetic
Particle-In-Cell (PIC) code for simulating the interaction
of laser light with plasma.
You will find the complete documentation in pdf format in
directory 'lpic-*/doc/' after unpacking LPIC++.
LPIC++ is written in C++ and is supposed to run on any
Unix platform like Linux, Solaris, SunOS, AIX, etc.
It has been tested and used extensively under AIX.
DEPENDENCIES
============
The parallelized version of LPIC++ requires one of the
following packages. If you want to run lpic as a single process
only, you can ignore this section.
- PVM (Parallel Virtual Machine), "a software system that
enables a collection of heterogeneous computers to be used
as a coherent and flexible concurrent computational resource".
Homepage: http://www.csm.ornl.gov/pvm/pvm_home.html
Download source: http://www.netlib.org/pvm3/index.html
PVM's source code needs slight modifications in order to
compile on Mac OS X. A modified package is available from
http://hpc.sourceforge.net
- LAM/MPI, an open-source implementation of the Message Passing
Interface specification (www.mpi-forum.org).
Homepage and Source: http://www.lam-mpi.org
LAM/MPI is also available as binary Debian, rpm, Fink and
Apple Mac OS X packages.
LPIC++ was used from 1994 to 1997 under AIX with pvm3.2.6 and
pvm3.3.11.
INSTALL
=======
1) Unpack the archive:
Copy 'lpic-*.tar.gz' to the directory where you would like
to install LPIC++, change to this directory and type
'gunzip lpic-*.tar.gz'
'tar -xvf lpic-*.tar'
Change to directory 'lpic-*'.
Installation is then done in three GNU steps:
2) ./configure
run "./configure --help" for options
typical configurations:
./configure
./configure --enable-pvm
./configure --enable-pvm \
--with-pvm-include=/usr/local/include \
--with-pvm-lib=/usr/local/lib
3) make
4) (sudo) make install-exec
Installation has been tested so far on
- Mac OS X 10.3 and 10.4
- Cygwin
- Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7
DISTRIBUTION
============
Change to the pic directory and type "make dist".
USAGE AND DOCUMENTATION
=======================
Read 'mpq225.pdf' in directory lpic-*/doc.
FEEDBACK
========
Please send any feedback to kemp@physics.unr.edu or pic@lichters.net
