System requirements

Hardware requirements

CINEMA-OT requires only a standard computer with enough RAM to perform in-memory computations.

OS requirements

The CINEMA-OT package is supported for all OS in principle. The package has been tested on the following systems:

• macOS: Monterey (12.4)
• Linux: RHEL Maipo (7.9), Ubantu (18.04)

Dependencies

See setup.cfg for details.

Installation

CINEMA-OT requires python version 3.7+. Install directly from pip with:

pip install cinemaot

The installation should take no more than a few minutes on a normal desktop computer.
