KIVA Download

abe427 · October 22, 2013, 20:16

Dear Forum,

I'm interested in learning the KIVA Software and according to Wikipedia a free version of the software called KIVA-EXEC is supposed to be out there somewhere.

However on the Homepage of Los Alamos National Laboratory no KIVA-EXEC download is in sight. I don't want to try to suggested downloads from Google unless I can trust it, due to the risk of virus.

So - does anyone know where I can download a free, reliable version of KIVA-EXEC?

Thanks for the help.

Greetings abe427,

From what I can figure out:

According to the Wikipedia page, it's free in the sense of being a trial version.
Many of the pages at LANL that refer to KIVA have dead internal links. This may or may not be related to USA's crazy government shut-down.
Either way, it seems that the correct way to access said software is to send an email to the person responsible for the software licensing and request a trial version of KIVA-EXEC: http://www.lanl.gov/projects/los-ala...-licensing.php

Best regards,
Bruno
