Add to the list General Computational Toolkit (GC Tool), a chemical process flowsheet simulator that is a modified version of its predecessor Systems Analysis Language Translator (SALT). The forerunner of SALT was General System Modeling Program (GSMP)and GSMP was preceded by a theta-pinch fusion power plant modeling program, which was developed at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) beginning in October 1973. The "User's Guide for GSMP, A General System Modeling Program, by J. M. Cook was published by ANL in October 1979 (ANL/MHD-79-11). Howard K. Geyer and Gregory F. Berry published "The Systems Analysis Language Translator (SALT): User's Guide," (ANL/FE-85-3) in January 1985 and "The Systems Analysis Language Translator (SALT): Programmer's Guide," (ANL/FE-85-4) in March 1985. SALT was originally written in PL/I, and desktop versions written in FORTRAN, Pascal, and C followed. The main frame version of SALT required approximately 100 tracks on an IBM 3350. It was smaller, faster, and easier to use than commercially available products. SALT was developed for use in energy systems but the concepts apply to any system which can be defined by components and flow streams connecting the components. It performs both steady state and dynamic analyses. GC Tool is the currently supported successor to SALT that is available through ANL.
