A platform independent, parallel version of ATLAS12
Abstract
Opacity sampling with ATLAS12, the stellar atmosphere code developed by R.L. Kurucz, cannot always be carried out with the desired frequency or depth resolution because of the limited computing power of even the fastest monoprocessors. There are also known problems of portability which make it difficult to run ATLAS12 with various compilers on different operating systems.
