* A daemon is a thermodynamic calculator that is at the core of TEST. It is a Java applet that runs in the background helping an analyst like a genie. Unlike a RIA, which communicates constantly with the server, a daeon is downloaded and runs locally like a native application. The download time is eliminated when TEST is locally installed from a CD (see MyAccount page for more info on the TEST-CD). While a RIA is meant for quick parametric studies to understand a device or a process, a daemon can be used for property evaluation through complex simulation of thermal systems. Visit the Tutorial section for further information on the RIAs and the daemons.
