Our central 3+1 simulations are run with locally-written code, sitting
on top of the freely available
Cactus Computational Toolkit.
Enrique Pazos wrote up some notes on using the
Cactus code
infrastructure for numerical evolutions on multiple-processor
machines.
Our Numerical Relativity simulations are carried out with the
Cactus program. We have summarized the procedure on how to
install and compile Cactus programs. You should note that this guide
was created based on our experience installing Cactus on our own
computers. Although it is general enough, you will have to do your own
if something goes wrong, and check the proper documentation at
cactus website. One of the
advantages Cactus provides is parallelization. The following is a set
of notes on installing and running WaveDemo in the Lobizon Cluster.
