 ====== STAR - Stable Releases of CAPRI ======
-Starting 2016, the CAPRI model shall be made more accessible to the scientific community by the provision of supported stable releases, a.k.a. Stars. The first Star was published at the end of November. The idea behind the Star is to provide a well tested version of the model, that does not change over time save for maintenance releases addressing critical issues. The [[capri:star|release notes]] are updated in a cumulative fashion.

-===== How to obtain a copy =====
+===== How to obtain CAPRI =====
-==== Model code: For users without a login to the CAPRI SVN system ====
+The model consists of (a) the model code including raw data and (b) the compiled data base including calibrated baselines. The model is really self contained in (a), since all software and raw data needed to compile the data bases and construct the baselines is found there. Albeit (b), the databases, can be derived from (a), doing so is a somewhat complicated process. Therefore, we provide (b) as a shortcut. Furthermore, it turns out that generating (b) may generate slightly different results on different hardware/software combinations, and therefore it is convenient to use a common versioned database release.
-From release 2.0 we decided to make all releases of CAPRI publicly available without going through a developer. Please refer to the [[capri:star|release notes]] for more information about each release.

-==== Databases ====
+==== Part B: Databases ====
+The model code contains all raw data and routines for building the CAPRI data sets needed to run the system. However, doing so can be tedious, technical and error prone. Here, we therefore provide a standard data base for selected releases. Please extract the contents of the zipped files into the *results* directory of your model installation (by default .\output\results). Use the data base with the same release number as the model code. Novel in STAR 2.4 is that we put an html file in the root of the results folder (batch.html), showing the output of the batch program that generated that data set, for a documentation of the settings used.
+**Note: The current database (2.4) is calibrated for 2030 and 2015, using the policy "cap_after_2014\ref", assuming EU-composition = BREXIT**.

 ===== Build databases and baselines =====
-Now you need to build all databases of CAPRI. This takes a very long time. Depending on the hardware you use, it can take up to several days.
+If you do not use one of the data bases provided above, or for some other reason want to build all databases yourself, then you can follow the steps below. This takes a long time to execute. Depending on the hardware you use, it can take up to a day.
   - In the GUI, choose the workstep "Installation" and then execute the GAMS program. It will create the necessary sub-directories to hold result and restart files.
