Alice Alice Off-Line Project


Overview of AliRoot

This page summarizes the status of Version 3.01 that will be released in May 1999. More details can be found in the User Guide.

The Geant3.21 based simulation program galice for the ALICE detector underwent major changes in programming language, number of lines of code, and supported platforms since its first release (Version 1) used for the TP.

Version 2 of the simulation program galice amounted to about 40 kLOC of Fortran code and 10 kLOC of C++.

Since then, the simulation program itself and the framework supporting it underwent changes reported during several meetings, to come to the present structure that it is believed can accomodate its future evolution.
