ISISQuick Start Guide2. How to Run an Existing ModelThe Chapter shows an example of running a model simulation using the model that has already beenprepared. There is a number of existing examples placed onto the “isis” folder of your machine duringthe installation of ISIS. The default location for your “isis” is C:\isis\data (if ISIS is installed at a locationother than the default folder, it will be xxx\xxx\isis\data where xxx stands for where ISIS is installed).This Chapter will explain how to access the ISIS sample file, interpret what it represents, show theway we can run the simulation based on this file and will help you go through the results obtainedduring this simulation.1) Launch ISIS.
