<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi all . </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Just thought I'd mention another open-source
project which is using pipelining (somewhat similarly to Piper). This is
the package called "Blue Orca" - <A
href="http://pyrite.cfas.washington.edu/orca/">http://pyrite.cfas.washington.edu/orca/</A>
. This is a Java-based package. A brief quote from its
website - </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> " <FONT size=3>The Orca Framework separates
different aspects of data processing and rendering into segments of a
pipeline. " </FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>This project seems to emphasize data visualisation more than the pipelining
side of things, but anyway - it may be a useful resource for
ideas! Looks like a very nice package .... </DIV>
