If you download the standard distribution of ParaDiS pub-dd3d.v2.0.tar.gz, you will not be able to compile and run it in SERIAL mode. The fix to this problem is described below.

You need to download these three files (available on ParaDiS download site):

makefile.sys
makefile.setup
ReadConfig.c

This will allow you to use SYS = i386 or SYS = cygwin and MODE = SERIAL in makefile.setup.

The SYS = i386 option requires intel compiler icc. If you do not have this compiler, you can modify the makefile.sys file to use a different compiler.

We are working to enable the SYS = mac option. Please come back soon.

If your computer does not allow opening of X-window, then you need to set enable_window = 0 in your win.script file. This is also necessary if you submit your job to a queue in a cluster, because you won't be able to open an interactive window there.
