8  o Install    This note is a guide to using the MIT General Circulation Model Ultra Verstaile
9    tar -xvf ...    implementation, MITgmcUV. MITgcmUV is a Fortran code that implements the
10    cd tools    algorithm described in Marshall et. al. 1997, Hill, Adcroft, ...
11    genmake.dec     The MITgcmUV implementation is designed to work efficiently on all classes
12    cd ../bin    of computer platforms. It can be used in both a single processor mode
13    ln -s ../tools/Makefile.dec makefile    and a parallel processor mode. Parallel processing can be either multi-threaded
14    make depend    shared memory such as that found on CRAY T90 machines or it can be multi-process
15    make    distributed memory. A set of "execution enviroment" support routines are
16    setenv PARALLEL 1    used to allow the same numerical code to run on top of a single-process, multi-threaded
17    ../exe/barrier    or distributed multi-process configuration.
18    
19    o Installing
20      To setup the model on a particular computer the code tree must be created
21      and appropriate compile and run scripts set up. For some platforms
22      the necessary scripts are included in the release - in this case follow
23      the steps below:
24    
25      1. Extract MITgcmUV from the downloadable archive
26         tar -xvf MITgcmUV.2.0.tar
27    
28      2. Create platform specific make file
29         For example on a Digital UNIX machine the script "genmake.dec" can
30         be used as shown below
31    
32         cd MITgcmUV.2.0/tools
33         genmake.dec
34         cd ../bin
35         ln -s ../tools/Makefile.dec makefile
36    
37  o Running    3. Now create header file dependency entries
38         make depend
39    
40      4. Compile code
41         make
42        
43    eedata    5. Run baseline test case
44    data       setenv PARALLEL 1
45         ../exe/MITgcmUV.2.0
46    
47    o Running
48    
49      - Input and output files
50    
51        Required files
52        ==============
53        The model is configured to look for two files with fixed names.
54        These files are called
55         "eedata" and "data".
56        The file eedata contains "execution environment" data. At present
57        this consists of a specification of the number of threads to
58        use in X and Y under multithreaded execution.
