Installation

Prerequisites

AgED runs on the Operating Systems listed below:

• Linux
• Solaris
• Windows

Installation

Prior to running AgED you need to install the following software packages:

• Java Virtual Machine (JVM)
• Java Advanced Imaging (JAI)

The JVM is a very common piece of software that you have probably installed already. All Java applications run inside a JVM. JAI is an extension to the JVM for fast image processing. It needs to be installed into the JVM because part of it is compiled code that runs directly on your CPU and, thus, overrides your JVM. Only if both software packages are correctly installed, you will be able to experience AgED.

Then, you can start AgED from the console by entering

 java -jar aged.jar

from the folder containing the extracted download content. If you are running Windows, it suffices to double click the file aged.jar.
