The Castle Project

Authors: Tom Anderson David Culler James Demmel Jerry Feldman Susan Graham Paul Hilfinger Katherine Yelick
 
Abstract: The goal of the Castle project was to provide a parallel programming environment that enables the construction of high performance applications that run portably across many platforms. The authors approach was to design and implement a multilayered architecture, with higher levels building on lower ones to ensure portability, but with care taken not to introduce abstractions that sacrifice performance.
