INTRODUCTION

COMPOSE-HPC is a project dedicated to making tools of annotation languages, source-to-source code transformation and code generation more useful and accessible to the developers of scientific and engineering software for high-performance computers.

Three tools are currently under development:

PAUL: Annotation processor
ROTE: Term rewriting
BRAID: Code generation, SIDL parser, Language interoperability

DEPENDENCIES

BRAID Python: Version 2.6 or higher

Build-only:
Make:           GNU make version 3.74 or higher
SWI-Prolog:     Version 5.10.4 or higher 
                (only needed if you intend to modify [ir,sidl].def)
Doxygen:        Version 1.6 or higher 
                (disable with ./configure --disable-documentation)


If you want to run the regression tests, you will also need:
Babel:          Version 2.0 or higher
Chapel:         Version 1.3.0
Java:           JVM 1.6 or higher
