  • This will allow good programming tools to be developed and maintained as larger enough base to support software industry
Implements a powerful software engineering framework for parallel computing by integrating parallel programming with the World Wide Web Productivity Tools
WebTools is a prototype developed at NPAC which is a base on which to build the Compute and Software Engineering Capabilities of WebWork
An early development will be WebFlow -- a AVS/Khoros like system built on the Web which can be used for BOTH Computing (modules are executable software) and for management of Software Development task (modules are source code and people)
Later can develop the full WebHPL -- a hybrid compiled/Interpreted environment implenting HPF/HPC++ etc system with Web infrastructure and front end
