Abstract :
The goal of the project is to provide an environment for facilitating the development of parallel applications over SCI (Scalable Coherent Interface, IEEE Std.1596) networks. To achieve this milestone we believe it is important to write applications that run independently of any particular underlying architecture. This is what we call architecture virtualisation
