DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM OR FUNCTION - GUI2QAD is an aid in preparation of input for the included QAD-CGPIC program, which is based on CCC-493/QAD-CGGP and PICTURE. QAD-CGPIC, which is included in this distribution, is a Fortran code for neutron and gamma-ray shielding calculations by the point kernel method. Provision is available to interactively view the geometry of the system. QAD-CG calculates fast-neutron and gamma-ray penetration through various shield configurations defined by combinatorial geometry specifications. The code can use the ANS-6.4.3 1990 buildup factor compilation (26 materials). 4.
METHODS - The code QAD-CGPIC is based on point kernel method and has a provision to select either GP or Capo's build up factors. 5.
RESTRICTIONS ON THE COMPLEXITY OF THE PROBLEM - Details on restrictions and limitations are available in the RSICC code manual CCC-493/QAD-CGGP. Because CCC-493 was obsoleted by CCC-645/QAD-CGGP-A, the CCC-493 documentation is not online but is included with this package. This package includes a Graphical User Interface to facilitate use. 6.
TYPICAL RUNNING TIME - Typical running time does not exceed 60 seconds. 7.
UNUSUAL FEATURES - 8.
RELATED OR AUXILIARY PROGRAMS - QAD-CGGP and PICTURE. 9.

HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS - A Pentium-III is required with 64 MB of Memory, 2GB disk drive, and a SVGA color monitor (1024x680). 12.
PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE -CCC-0697/01: VISUAL BASIC FORTRAN-IV 13.
SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS - The graphical input section is coded in Visual Basic 6 and Fortran. The executables were created with a Lahey compiler. 14.
