These programs employ the powerful graphic and user interfaces of the Macintosh, UNIX Motif, and Microsoft Windows. Our program requires a computer with at least 16 MB of RAM memory and at least 100 MB of free disk space. Animated fill processes are generated on the screen with an option to stop and alter many of the input parameters during execution. Graphic Output can be directed to PICT, BMP, or printing devices. Model results can be directed to text files or binary files.
These are powerful programs, which are useful for hydrocarbon exploration, basin analysis, teaching, and research. A hard copy user manual is included with the software package.
