Isn't there one main software framework for ILC detector simulation that I can use?

TODO: What kind of common software packages can we establish and use effectively among all 4 groups? --JM

What

...

frameworks are available for ILC Detector Simulations?

Many tools are available for the simulation of ILC detectors and the analysis of results. There are three differents toolchains that can be used, corresponding to the LDC, SiD, and GLD detectors. The software suites corresponding to the first two detectors can simulate all 3 detector concepts, so there is no strict division on which tools should be used for a certain detector study.
