Computing environment

  Both LUCAS and pLUCAS were tested on a shared 10 Mb/sec Ethernet network of 20 dedicated 70 MHz Sun SPARCstation 5 machines each with 32 Mb of memory. pLUCAS and a bare essential subset of the GIS were locally installed in the /var/tmp directory, a local disk, on each machine which required 6 Mb of disk space for the initial installation and approximately 25 Mb during execution.
