Upgrade of the Cellular General Purpose Monte Carlo Tool FOAM to version 2.06


Abstract in English

FOAM-2.06 is an upgraded version of FOAM, a general purpose, self-adapting Monte Carlo event generator. In comparison with FOAM-2.05, it has two important improvements. New interface to random numbers lets the user to choose from the three state of the art random number generators. Improved algorithms for simplical grid need less computer memory; the problem of the prohibitively large memory allocation required for the large number ($>10^6$) of simplical cells is now eliminated -- the new version can handle such cases even on the average desktop computers. In addition, generation of the Monte Carlo events, in case of large number of cells, may be even significantly faster.
