POOMA: Parallel Object-Oriented Methods and Applications

The Parallel Object-Oriented Methods and Applications (POOMA) Team centered at the Advanced Computing Laboratory of the Los Alamos National Laboratory is developing a multilevel structure of class libraries which will enable the rapid prototyping of problems in engineering and scientific domains. The simulation environment is designed to be transparent on serial, distributed, and parallel architectures. Current application areas include molecular/chemical dynamics, plasma physics and fluid dynamics.

PSEware: A Toolkit for Building Problem-Solving Environments

PSEware is a multi-institution (California Institute of Technology, Indiana University, Los Alamos National Laboratory, New Mexico State University, and Drexel University) project funded by the National Science Foundation's High Performance Computing and Communications program. The goal of this project is to help scientists and engineers carry out computational tasks more effectively by doing research on:
[1] The integration of symbolic and numeric computation to facilitate problem specification, exploration and result verification.
[2] Hierarchies of reusable computational abstractions organized in libraries with well-defined navigational structures.
[3] Exploiting commercial standards and tools for object-request brokers, compound documents, and collaboration infrastructure.
