I like to ask for some clarification on this. In several of his papers, there are references of run time on CRAY Y-MP which is installed at Los Alamos Nat. Labs. This include the one on Abyss web site with reference for 1 min run time to compute the trimix table. In his latest book, Technical Diving in Depth, page 160, he also reference that simulation was done on a SGI Origin SMP - that Origin 2000 is government property. It also listed that the code was done in FORTRAN 77/90 and BASIC. Source code size is 1,640 line and cost was $4,500. It seems that portion of the work was done with government resource. Is there something I miss reading? Thanks, Leonard Tsai -----Original Message----- From: Christina M.

Back when I worked in the aerospace industry, all source code for the weapons system software I developed under US govt contract was owned by the US govt, not the contractor. Privately developed stuff is totally different - we do not use govt labs for product development. As it is, Bruce Wienke e-mailed me privately, and said that RGBM was developed using his own personal resources (in Fortran on his PC). I assume this includes all of development - design, coding, simulation, testing, etc. Somehow I was under the assumption that this was developed and / or tested at Los Alamos National Labs, using LANL resources. -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
