NORDA Bench Mark Package Document.

Abstract

A suite of five NORDA computer programs has been selected to comprise the NORDA Bench Mark Package. The programs are coded entirely in CDC FORTRAN IV (except for one small assembly language function contained in the program AUTO-OCEAN). This document provides the user with information and instructions for executing each program at a bench mark site. Included with the Bench Mark Package are card decks and magnetic tapes, the contents of which are described herein. Sample inputs and outputs contained in this report were derived from these decks and tapes. It is virtually impossible to foresee every problem that may be encountered in transferring a program between computers. This document places special emphasis on the FORTRAN/Operating System interfaces that are most likely to be site dependent and thus create problems. Information presented in the main text of this report should be sufficient to implement minor job stream and/or FORTRAN coding changes to the computer programs included in the Bench Mark Package in order to adapt them to the on-site operating system. Should more substantial changes become necessary, additional documentation and information are provided in the appendices. (Author)
