ABSTRACT
This memo describes the software engineering and technical details of 
the design and implementation of the wvrgcal program and associated 
libraries. This program performs off-line correction of atmospheric 
phase fluctuations in ALMA observations, using the 183 GHz Water
Vapour Radiometers (WVRs) installed on the ALMA 12m dishes. The memo can 
be used as a guide for detailed study of the source code of the program 
for purposes of further development or maintenance.
