The 64-bit versions of these parameter sets configure the kernel to use the increased
process data space. The CAE/ME/General Engineering Workstation sets are for general
workstation use, which includes running typical MDA applications. The EE Engineering
Workstation sets are for compute-intensive applications that do not perform large
amounts of disk I/O. Many EDA applications fall into this category. Be sure to select the
64-bit or 32-bit versions depending on the “bitness” of your installed kernel.
