Computer Architecture Simulation & Visualisation
Licensing HASE
HASE is available free of charge to academic institutions, and to
other organisations that wish to use it for internal, non-commercial,
non-profit educational and/or research purposes, on completion of an
academic licence agreement. This form and the accompanying schedule
of software covered by the licence can be downloaded as PDF documents
from
For commercial use, the University will negotiate a separate licence on
appropriate terms.
HASE has recently been re-written in Java and is undergoing testing on
Redhat 9 and Fedora Core 3 versions of Linux. We plan to make this new
version (HASE3) available starting in September 2005.
What you need to know
Hase-3
HASE-3 is a new version of HASE written in Java. There are three main
components, the HASE application, the HASE GUI and Hase++. Hase++, the
discrete event simulation engine, remains virtually unchanged from
earlier versions of HASE. Similarly, the simulation executable
created by HASE for each model is still a compiled C++ program,
so HASE requires access to a C++ compiler.
Hase-2
- HASE-2 and Hase++ sources are written in C++ and have successfully
been compiled on Linux 2.4 with gcc 2.96 (Red Hat Linux 7.3). HASE
has also been used on Linux 2.2 and gcc 2.91.
- HASE-2 uses the QT 2.2.3 library available from
http://www.trolltech.com/product/qt under the GNU General Public
Licence.
- Some integrated tools (e.g. including the applet generator,
timing diagram viewer) have been written in Java and are JDK 1.4
compatible. A Java Runtime Environment 1.4 can be downloaded from
http://java.sun.com.
