// class description:
//   This is a class for run control in GEANT4 for multi-threaded runs
//   It extends G4RunManager re-implementing multi-threaded behavior in
//   key methods. See documentation for G4RunManager
//   Users initializes an instance of this class instead of G4RunManager
//   to start a multi-threaded simulation.
