CCC-0467 ITS-3.0.

1. NAME OR DESIGNATION OF PROGRAM:  ITS-3.0.

3. DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM OR FUNCTION

ITS permits a state-of-the-art  Monte Carlo solution of linear time-integrated coupled electron/ photon radiation transport problems with or without the presence of  macroscopic electric and magnetic fields of arbitrary spatial dependence.

4. METHOD OF SOLUTION

Through a machine-portable utility that emulates the basic features of the CDC UPDATE processor, the user selects one of eight codes for running on a machine of one of four (at least) major vendors. With the ITS-3.0 release the PSR-0245/UPEML package is included to perform these functions. The ease with which this utility is applied combines with an input scheme based on order-independent descriptive keywords that makes maximum use of defaults and internal error checking to provide experimentalists and theorists alike with a method for the routine but rigorous solution of sophisticated radiation transport problems. Physical rigor is maximized by employing the best available cross sections and sampling distributions, and the most complete physical  model for describing the production and transport of the electron/ photon cascade from 1.0 GeV down to 1.0 keV. Flexibility of construction permits the codes to be tailored to specific applications and the capabilities of the codes to be extended to more complex applications through update procedures.

5. RESTRICTIONS ON THE COMPLEXITY OF THE PROBLEM

Restrictions and/or  limitations for ITS depend upon the local operating system.

6. TYPICAL RUNNING TIME

With the supplied sample problems, the following lists the CPU time  on the IBM 3033: TIGER 9 minutes; TIGERP 11 minutes; TIGERPH 3 minutes; CYLTRAN 12 minutes; CYLTRANM1 12 minutes; CYLTRANM2 13 minutes; CYLTRANP 14 minutes; ACCEPT 16 minutes; ACCEPTH 3 minutes; ACCEPTM 18 minutes; ACCEPTP 17 minutes;

The cross-section generating programs XGEN & XGENP and  the sample problems of the ITS modules were executed at the NEA/DB in a PC-Brett, Pentium processor of 75 MHz with base memory 640 Kbyte and extended memory 16 MByte. The execution times are displayed in the following table.

                |---------------------------------------



The 10,000 history sample problems required the following times on an 80486DX-33 PC (history tracking only -- excludes the time spent loading code and data) are:



                 Code     Seconds     Minutes

                --------  -------     -------

                TIGER       2222       37.0

                TIGERP      2663       44.4

                CYLTRAN     3083       51.4

                CYLTRANP    3374       56.2

                ACCEPT      3916       65.3

                ACCEPTP     4178       69.6

                CYLTRANM    3058       51.0

                ACCEPTM     4944       82.4

                TIGERPH      616       10.3

                ACCEPTPH    1022       17.0

                CYLTRNM2    4300       71.7



The run times for an 80386DX-20 PC (with coprocessor) would be about five times longer. The run times reported by RSICfor an IBM 3033 mainframe are about a factor of four less.

11. MACHINE REQUIREMENTS

ITS is operable on the CRAY, CDC CYBER-76, IBM-3081, VAX, or the CRAY-1 computers. A total of about 9 megabytes of hard disk is needed to install ITS-3.0. The PC package (Version 2.1) includes both DOS and O.S2 versions. The executables for the DOS versions of ITS will run only on an 80836 computer with an 80387 coprocessor and about 4 Mbytes of memory. These versions run in protected mode using a DOS extender. The executables for the O/S2 versions of ITS will run on either 80286 or 80386 under O.S2 and probably require around 4 Mbytes of memory.

The ITS code package Version 3.0 was installed and run  at the NEA/DB on a PC-Brett Pentium processor of 75 MHz with a base  memory of 640 Kbyte and extended memory of 16 MByte; the executable  files of the ITS modules were created using the Lahey compiler system (Version 5.20) including the stubloading option at linking time. - DISKSPACE REQUIREMENTS: About 30 MByte of hard disk space are required to install all the files and to run the ITS 3.0 code system. This amount includes the OPL (Old Program Library) files for UPEML, the files generated during the compilation of the executables of ALL the ITS module (source files, executable files and other auxiliary files), the binary libraries and the sample input and output files. - The executable files created at the NEA/DB occupy 4.2 MByte of diskspace. - The original executable files occupy 4.9 MByte of diskspace. - The source file of the Monte Carlo program has a filesize of 0.75 MByte. The source file of the cross-section generating program has a filesize of 0.22 MByte; the corresponding OPL files created by the Updata Emulator processor UPEML occupy 1.7  MByte of diskspace. - The ASCII library file XDATA.DAT of electron and photon cross-section data has a filesize of 3.0 MByte; the corresponding binary libraries XGEN.LIB create by XGEN and XGENP coccupy about 1.5 MByte of diskspace. - The output files from the sample problems occupy about 1.6 MByte of diskspace.

13. OPERATING SYSTEM UNDER WHICH PROGRAM IS EXECUTED

A Fortran 77 compiler is required. The IBM PC executables were created using Lahey Fortran Compiler F77L-EM/32 Version 3.0 and run at least twice as fast as the OS/2 versions/ The OS/2 executables were created with the Microsoft Fortran 5.0 and linker.

The ITS package Version 3.0 was installed and run at the NEA/DB in a PC-Brett (Pentium processor of 75 MHz) running MS-DOS 6.2. The FORTRAN Lahey compiler F77L/EM-32 (Version 5.20) and linker 386LINK (Version 5.1L) were used to compile the source files  and create the executables of the ITS modules.
