Projected Value

The goals of the PPF are to save time in developing particle Monte Carlo packages and to provide a standard method of parallelization. Benefits of a technological solution are:

• Reduction of development and training hours in order to reduce the time and cost of a project.
• Maximization of resources by enabling physicists to concentrate on work applicable to their areas of study.
• Ensured correctness in parallelization.
• Increased maintainability of code, due to standardization.
• Ensured robust, efficient parallelization over distributed systems, improving the end product.
• Preparation for future changes to distributed mechanisms by abstracting parallelization methods.
