XOMEGA Documentation

The current xomega documentaiton consists of a series of descriptive text files and screen captures of the graphical interface. These documents and images describe each functions of the xomega interface.

The table below presents the documents in order of usage in a typical xomega session. Each row of the table describes one of the main sections of the interface. The first column of the table is a link to the text document describing that section. The remaining columns have links to screen captures of menus and dialog boxes associated with that section.

The links will open new browser windows, one new window for the doc files and one new window for the image files.

The documents below are simple tutorials on how to use XOMEGA to start several different types of simulations.
