I would like to use a simulator that is in limited access. Do I have to register myself into erecord ?¶
No.
A erecord visitor who would like to use a simulator that is in limited access doesn’t need to register himself into erecord. He has to contact the model owner who will accept or not to give him access to the model, ie who will give or not the name and password of one of the authorized users that he manages (more exactly).
Can I use my simulation results later on ?¶
When calling the erecord web services from a web browser, it is possible to store some simulation results into the web browser, in order to use them later on.
See mode for storage | Web storage capability

Some resources return results as files (simulation results, parameters values) :
GET vpz/report | GET vpz/report/conditions | GET vpz/experiment
POST vpz/report | POST vpz/report/conditions | POST vpz/experiment
In case of a resource returning result files, you can keep your received result files as long as you want and use them when you want.
In case of a resource returning result files, it is possible to ask for downloading the result files later on (instead of receiving them directly).
