Software Strategy for JNAC (PetaFlops) Initiative

Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at JNAC (PetaFlops) Presentation on August 28,1996. Foils prepared August 23 1996

This was part of a set of PetaFlop (JNAC) Presentations to group of Federal Program Managers
JNAC = Joint National Advanced Computing Initiative
First we describe Software Strategy in context of Multilevel Systems Architecture
Three Foils describe a general comparison between JNAC and HPCC
Finally some back up foils give more detail
