CMS Releases

Instructions

1. Extract the OpenMP DLL file from the zip, if needed. Note: you must have the DLL file in the same directory with executable.
2. If running the CMS from the SMS, change the location and name of the CMS-Flow executable by clicking on "Edit" | "Preferences...", and then selecting the "File Locations" tab and then clicking on the box under the "Executables" column next to "CMS-Flow" box in the "Models" column. Enter the location and name of the executable and select "Open".

• Note: For security reasons, the CMS executables are available for download in a zip file.
