DistArray

=========

*Think globally, act locally.*

DistArray provides general multidimensional NumPy-like distributed arrays to

Python.  It intends to bring the strengths of NumPy to data-parallel

high-performance computing.  DistArray has a similar API to `NumPy`_.

DistArray is ready for real-world testing and deployment; however, the project

is still evolving rapidly, and we appreciate continued input from the

scientific-Python community.

DistArray is for users who

* know and love Python and NumPy,

* want to scale NumPy to larger distributed datasets,

* want to interactively play with distributed data but also

* want to run batch-oriented distributed programs;

* want an easier way to drive and coordinate existing MPI-based codes,

* have a lot of data that may already be distributed,

* want a global view ("think globally") with local control ("act locally"),

* need to tap into existing parallel libraries like Trilinos, PETSc, or

  Elemental,

* want the interactivity of IPython and the performance of MPI.

DistArray is designed to work with other packages that implement the

`Distributed Array Protocol`_.
