with "cloud" I mean the Barcelona Supercomputing Center BSC Venus-C cluster. We should run a large parametric simulation using jEplus (a parametric shell for E+). A dedicate version of jEplus (based on E+V6.0) was created in order to merge the BSC cluster settings. The research group involved in this part of the project is now working on upgrading this dedicate version of jEplus according to E+7.1 but it will take time.
Can you explain me a bit better how I can downgrade the objects?
