The Fathom Project

Fathom is a name of the collected set of technologies being developed by the meshing & frameworks effort at ANL/MCS, lead by Tim Tautges. In a sentence, this project can be described as a collection of interfaces and their implementations for accessing scientific data, tools and services which work with those interfaces to do useful things, and the composition of vertically-integrated applications based on those tools. Support for this project is balanced between those interested in the core technologies (e.g. ITAPS) and more application-oriented sponsors (e.g. NEAMS).
