General organization of Code_Aster

General organization of Code_Aster:
- Main program in FORTRAN
- Several high level interfaces
-

Memory management: JEVEUX

Command file management: SUPERVISOR
Finite element operation management: CALCUL/TE
Comportment law management: NMCOMP/LC + MFRONT + UMAT

- Several catalogs
-

Datastructure organization
Command catalogs: syntax of Code_Aster commands
Finite element catalogs: description of unknowns and finite element computation
Comportement laws catalogs: description of comportment laws
