Introduction

• DEGAS 2 development going full speed.
  • V. 2.0 to be released by APS.
• Flexible physics central to DEGAS 2 philosophy.
• Keys to flexibility are
  • Self-describing data structures (DEGAS 2 ``classes''),
  • FWEB's C-like preprocessor allows
    definition of these structures to be done
    entirely in header files
    • easily changed.
  • Eventually, would like them to store
    data-specific subroutines (``methods'') as well.
• Look at two examples to demonstrate:
  1. Elastic scattering,
  2. ``Bateman format'' for
     plasma-material interactions.

• Ease-of-use central to DEGAS 2 philosopy as well.
  • Consider possibilities for
    graphical user interface (GUI).
