 #### Notes regarding esmini:
 
 Esmini is an environment simulator with a visualization and does not provide an ALKS. Therefore, for demonstration purposes the vehicle under test is controlled by a so called "default controller", which is provided by esmini. This controller type is defined by the OpenSCENARIO standard as a controller that only maintains the speed and lane offset without taking other traffic participants into account.

 Currently openPASS does not support the controller concept of OpenSCENARIO. Instead, entities and their controlling components are defined in the ProfilesCatalog.xml. Sourrounding entities are also controlled by the Algorithm Following Driver Model. Therefore, the velocities of the surrounding entities may differ slightly from the definitions in the scenarios. 
 
+## Running on Linux
+
+The execution in the open source simulator "CARLA" under Ubuntu 20.04 is described here:
+1. Clone or download this repository to your local drive.
+2. Download CARLA and the compatible scenario-runner for CARLA (tested successfully with [CARLA 0.9.11](https://github.com/carla-simulator/carla/releases/tag/0.9.11) and [scenario_runner-0.9.11](https://github.com/carla-simulator/scenario_runner/releases/tag/v0.9.11)
+3. Follow the installation instructions for [CARLA](https://carla.readthedocs.io/en/0.9.11/) and the [scenario_runner](https://github.com/carla-simulator/scenario_runner/blob/master/Docs/getting_scenariorunner.md) (be sure to install all the required tools and libs from requirements.txt (mentioned in "Installation summary" and to set the environment variables (mentioned in "B. Download ScenarioRunner from source"))
+4. Once you can run the .xosc scenarios delivered with CARLA, run the ALKS scenarios like this:
+ a) Start the CARLA simulator: Go to the CARLA installation folder and type "./CarlaUE4.sh" 
+ b) Start the scenario runner: Go to the scenario_runner installation folder and type e.g. "python scenario_runner.py --openscenario /path/to/OSC-ALKS-scenarios/Scenarios/ALKS_Scenario_4.1_1_FreeDriving_TEMPLATE.xosc"
+
+Execution with esmini or openPASS on Linux hasn't been tested yet.
+
+#### Notes regarding CARLA
+
+With CARLA version 0.9.11 the following scenarios are supported: 4.1_1, 4.2_1, 4.2_2, 4.2_4 (4.2 only if the pedestrian is modeled directly in the scenario and not in a catalog or is exchanged by a vehicle).
+
 ## Quality Measures
 
 As a first proof-of-concept the scenarios have been integrated and simulated in [openPASS 0.7](https://git.eclipse.org/c/simopenpass/simopenpass.git/tag/?h=openPASS_0.7) at BMW. In addition the open source tool esmini can be used as described above.
