Dvegas 2.0.0 released

Nikolas Kauer — Tue, 07 May 2002 14:04:32 -0000

Dvegas facilitates adaptive Monte Carlo integration based on an enhanced and extended version of Peter Lepage's VEGAS algorithm. It allows to automatically take into account correlations. The code is fully object-oriented, written in ISO/ANSI standard C++, makes extensive use of the C++ Standard Library and includes an interface to OmniComp.

OmniComp is an intuitive system that is easy to install and use which allows to accelerate Monte Carlo programs through distributed execution on workstation clusters or PC farms as well as multi-processor machines. It is based on omniORB, a high-performance, open-source CORBA implementation from AT&T Laboratories Cambridge. Notably, it does not require thread-safe integrand implementations.

The kinematics package provides C++ classes to simulate hadron collider kinematics and selection cuts. Key features of the implementation are lazy evaluation and result buffering, which together allow code to be written in a clear and compact manner (as illustrated in boost()). An extensive test suite is included.

omnicomp 1.0 alpha 0 released

Nikolas Kauer — Fri, 20 Jul 2001 00:10:30 -0000

omnicomp facilitates distributed, heterogeneous, object-oriented scientific computing with an intuitive system that is easy to install and use. It is based on a high-performance, open-source CORBA implementation from AT&T Laboratories Cambridge. It features support for C++, Fortran and C, and allows to accelerate programs through distributed execution on workstation clusters or PC farms as well as multi-processor machines. Only minor modifications are needed to adapt existing code. Thread safety is not required. Details about this alpha release can be found in the README file.

dVegas 1.1 beta 1 released

Nikolas Kauer — Mon, 12 Mar 2001 04:09:19 -0000

dVegas facilitates adaptive Monte Carlo integration based on Peter Lepage's VEGAS algorithm. It is written in C++ and includes interfaces for Fortran and C. A parallel library version is provided for multiprocessor machines. Version 1.1 is based on an extended algorithm that allows to relax the separability assumption for some or all dimensions. It also includes a standalone Python module and a Python wrapper around the C++ implementation. Details about dVegas features and this release can be found in the release notes and package documentation.
