Comments

  1. It is required that the parallelism type be identical between Starter and Engine (for example, SPMD Starter and SPMD Engine executables).

    Above is a list of the actual platforms. New platforms will be added when available.

  2. For performance point of view, it is recommended to set only one platform, which corresponds to the Radioss Engine machine. Using generic platform or setting more than one platform may decreases performance of Radioss Engine.
