Recommended configuration of the workstation

A workstation should have the following properties:

Property Requirement
Processor Multicore CPU, not older than 3 years, with 3 GHz clock speed.
RAM At least 3 GB. The application alone, without data, requires 120 MB of internal memory. The size of the application model is a decisive factor. When dealing with very large models, there must be enough RAM if a Externalize is to be avoided.
Hard disk The size of the hard drive and the access time are very important for the database server, but less important for the EEC installation. Around 600 MB of hard-disk space is required for the installation.
Network card The network card should support at least 100 Mbit/s. For client-server installations, 1 Gbit/s is recommended.
Monitor The EEC is designed to support multiple-monitor configurations. Experience has shown that work efficiency improves significantly when two-monitor solutions are used.

If the RAM requirements for very large models is greater than the actually available memory, this will be covered by the Windows operating system automatically, by externalizing a part of the RAM to the hard disk.
