*** Improvement : ECD file generated by the tracer :
An ECD file generated by E-CELL1 contains only the total running time and the present time,
while an ECD file generated by E-CELL2 contains the maximum, mean, and minimum values in addition.
*** Improvement : logger function is mounted:
The logger function, which performs a simulation without displaying any Tracer window, is mounted in E-CELL2
*** Improvement : Batch mode is mounted:
The batch mode which performs a simulation at high speed without displaying GUI is mounted in E-CELL2
*** Restriction : Operation during simulation execution:
In E-CELL2.20beta, if it operates closing Tracer during simulation execution (a control panel being the Run state), a system may fall rarely. Please perform operation in the Stop state as much as possible.
*** Restriction : Initial value of .ecd files:
In E-CELL2.20beta, the initial value may not be saved at .ecd files which Tracer and Logger output.
*** Restriction : Initial value of Reactor window:
In E-CELL2.20beta, a different value may be displayed on the initial value of Reactor window. The right value will be displayed if simulation is performed.
*** Other resources :
* A user's manual
* Latest source codes for the E-CELL2
* Binary executables of the E-CELL2.0 or later
