BIDM.Asset.Abstract The Panda software library supports high performance input and output of multidimensional array data and provides efficient array storage management on parallel and sequential platforms. Panda's simple abstract high-level interfaces allow exploitation of the semantic information of the applications' array i/o requests. The underlying i/o strategies make use of the semantic information obtained to make intelligent optimization decisions. The high level interfaces for the array i/o operations provide ease of use and enhance the portability of the applications. META

BIDM.Asset.TargetEnvironment Panda 2.1 has been tested on sequential Unix workstations and on an IBM SP2. It currently runs on the UNIX file system using message passing library MPICH, and the NASA AMES IBM SP2's AIX file system using IBM's commercial version of the MPI message passing library. We have tested Panda 2.1 on the following platforms and configurations, using Panda's interface for C++ applications: Sun Workstation with UNIX File System, HP Workstation with UNIX File System, NASA Ames IBM SP2 with AIX 3.2.5 file system, Cornell Theory Center IBM SP2 with AIX 3.2.5 file system.
