************************************************************************************
SCALE6 was fully tested on Linux, Intel Mac OSX and personal computers running Windows. 
The Windows version runs on Pentium personal computers with a minimum of 1 GB RAM 
(4 GB recommended). Nominal hard disk requirements are 30 GB for a complete installation, 
including space for running sample problems. SCALE runs on Windows XP or later. 

Fortran 95 and C compilers are required to build the Unix version. Makefiles, 
source files; data libraries, and batch files are included in the package.

Included Windows executables were created using the Intel F95 Fortran compiler for 
Windows version 10.1 on a 32-bit Pentium 4 under Windows XP. Linux and Mac OSX 
executables were created on the systems listed below. Linux executables are 
distributed in both 64-bit and 32-bit binaries. 

This version was tested on the following systems. 
• Intel Xeon running Fedora Core 5 with Intel Fortran 95 version 11.0 and GNU gcc 4.1.2
• AMD Opteron running RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 with Intel ifort version 10.1 and gcc 3.4.6
• Intel Mac OS X with Intel Fortran 10.1 compiler and GNU gcc 4.0.1
• Windows XP Service Pack 2
• Windows Vista Service Pack 1

If the user chooses to compile executables, note that the xkba module of Denovo uses 
several GNU General Public License (GPL) open-source vendors. The following GPL vendor 
software required to build Denovo for SCALE6 are included in the installation package:
• GNU Scientific Library (GSL) (1.9)
• LAPACK/BLAS
• Trilinos (8.0.4)
• GNU C/C++ and FORTRAN compilers, Versions 4.3.2
