Adaptive Simulated Annealing (ASA)
________________________________________________________________________
General Information
The latest Adaptive Simulated Annealing (ASA) code and some related
(p)reprints can be retrieved via anonymous ftp from
ftp.alumni.caltech.edu [131.215.139.234] in the /pub/ingber directory.
This archive also can be accessed via WWW path
http://alumni.caltech.edu/~ingber/ or
ftp://ftp.alumni.caltech.edu/pub/ingber/
Interactively [brackets signify machine prompts]:
[your_machine%] ftp ftp.alumni.caltech.edu
[Name (...):] anonymous
[Password:] your_e-mail_address
[ftp>] cd pub/ingber
[ftp>] binary
[ftp>] ls
[ftp>] get file_of_interest
[ftp>] quit
The 00index file contains an index of the other files and information
on getting gzip and unshar for DOS, MAC, UNIX, and VMS systems.
The latest version of ASA, ASA-x.y (x and y are version numbers), can
be obtained in several formats. ASA-shar.Z is a compress'd shar'd file
of the current code. For the convenience of users who do not have any
uncompress/gunzip utility, there is a file ASA-shar which is an
uncompress'd copy of ASA-shar.Z; if you do not have sh or shar, you
still can delete the first-column X's and separate the files at the
END_OF_FILE locations. There are tar'd versions in compress and gzip
format, ASA.tar.Z and ASA.tar.gz, respectively. There also is a
current zip'd version, ASA.zip, in which all files have been processed
through unix2dos. Directory /pub/ingber/0lower.dir contains links to
these files for some PC users who may have difficulty with upper case.
If you do not have ftp access, get information on the FTPmail service
by: mail ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com, and send only the word "help" in the
body of the message.
If any of the above are not possible, and if your mailer can handle
large files (please test this first), the code or papers you require
can be sent as uuencoded compressed files via electronic mail. If you
have gzip, resulting in smaller files, please state this.
Sorry, I cannot assume the task of mailing out hardcopies of code or
papers. My volunteer time assisting people with their queries on my
codes and papers must be limited to electronic mail correspondence.
Commercial consulting appointments can be made by contacting me via
e-mail, mail, or calling 1.800.L.INGBER.
To get on or off the ASA_list e-mailings, just send an e-mail to
asa-request@alumni.caltech.edu with your request. Update notices are
sent to the ASA_list about every month or two, more frequently if
warranted, e.g., in cases of important bug fixes; these notices are the
only e-mail sent to the ASA_list.
