[ contact / participants ]
a well integrated, production quality toolset to simplify the development of large scale scientific and engineering applications for massively parallel distributed memory architectures
The toolset will comprise:
The toolset delivered will be portable. The portability layer for the cross-development tools is PCTE and the portability layer for the runtime system is PARMACS/MPI.
Several developers of scientific and engineering applications will evaluate the cross development environment, run-time environment and target platforms for robustness, adequacy, scalability and performance.
A number of tools have been selected following a comprehensive evaluation based on end-user requirements.
The PPPE project made a considerable contribution to world-wide standards for parallel computing:
