GUI Platforms and OS
- Windows and Linux (32-bit and 64-bit)
Parallel Processing
- 32-bit systems can only address 2 GBytes of RAM per process
- 64-bit systems can address more than 2 GBytes of RAM per process
and therefore have an advantage over 32-bit systems
- Scalable to multiple processor servers (e.g. SGI) or clusters with
various interconnect technologies (e.g. Ethernet, Myrinet,
Infiniband)
Network Features
- Remote execution of solvers from GUI versions
Licencing
- Three licensing and price categories: Silver, Gold and Platinum
dependent on platform
- CPU-based
licencing enables parallel processing on multi-core CPUs without extra
licence costs
- Free evaluation licence
- Educational licence options are available for academic institutions
or the creators of teaching material
- Classroom licences (256 MByte limitation) are available to academic
institutions who purchase or rent full licences
- FEKO LITE (limited, licenced, but FREE version of FEKO)
- Floating licences are supported via single or redundant licence
server configurations
- Dongle licensing is supported for multiple installations of a
single licence; note that dongle licensing is only supported for
Windows and Linux on IA32, AMD64, EM64T and IA64 platforms
