     Disk Space Requirements (Block Cluster Size = 1):

     Installation options allow for a wide range of required block
     usage.

     A minimum configuration requires:

     DECdesign, Version 1.1                            SSA 29.29.01-A




     Installation:     14,500 blocks
                       (7.4M bytes)

     Permanent:        13,200 blocks
                       (6.8M bytes)

     A maximum configuration requires:

     Installation:     80,637 blocks
                       (41.3M bytes)

     Permanent:        79,700 blocks
                       (40.8M bytes)

     Note: Creating and using one DECdesign library will add 16,500
     blocks to the maximum configuration for a total of 96,200
     blocks.

     These counts refer to the disk space required on the system
     disk. The sizes are approximate; actual sizes may vary depending
     on the user's system environment, configuration, and software
     options.

     Some files from the maximum configuration may optionally be
     placed on an alternate disk if one is available, reducing the
     disk space required on the system disk both during and after
     installation. Refer to the DECdesign Installation Guide for
     details on the block requirements of specific configurations.

     Memory Requirements for DECwindows Support:

     The minimum supported memory for this application running in
     a standalone DECwindows environment with both the client and
     server executing on that same system is 16 MB. However, the use
     of this software in conjunction with increased memory capability
     improves performance.

     OPTIONAL HARDWARE

     Hardcopy reports of the information from DECdesign model
     database can be printed (after conversion from DDIF to
     PostScript[R] format) using any Digital PostScript printer,
     ScriptPrinter (LN03R), PrintServer 20, PrintServer 40, or
     PrintServer 40 Plus laser printer.

     CLUSTER ENVIRONMENT

     This layered product is fully supported when installed on any
     valid and licensed VAXcluster* configuration without restric-
     tions. The HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS sections of this product's
     Software Product Description and System Support Addendum detail
     any special hardware required by this product.

     *  V5.x VAXcluster configurations are fully described in the
        VAXcluster Software Product Description (29.78.xx) and in-
        clude CI, Ethernet, and Mixed Interconnect configurations.

     SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS

     For Workstations Running DECwindows:

     o  VMS Operating System V5.4 (and necessary components of VMS
        DECwindows)

     o  VAX CDD/Plus V4.3

     Note: VAX CDD/Plus is required for the server component of the
     DECdesign client/server model.

     This product may run in either of the following ways:

     o  Standalone execution - running the X11 display server and the
        client application on the same machine.

     o  Remote execution - running the X11 display server and the
        client application on different machines.

     ORDERING INFORMATION

     Note: DECdesign is now offered in modules. Each module requires
     a PAK that must be installed. Each order must include licenses
     for the DECdesign platform and from 1-3 of the distinct tech-
