34. Our notation follows the work 2. (Formula presented) denotes the electric part, 20 denotes the (Formula presented) (Formula presented) quadrupolar part in an expansion of the gravitational wave strain in tensor harmonics.

36. For a resolution (Formula presented) one time step is accomplished in about 2 s of CPU time on the DEC-Alpha workstations where we run the simulations achieving a performance of several hundred MFlops. Taking into account that about (Formula presented) time steps are needed to cover the evolution up to (Formula presented) for this given resolution, one single simulation takes about 16 days.
