Panda

PANDA is a runtime system which provides architectural support for efficient parallel and distributed programming. PANDA supplies means for fast user-level threads, and for a transparent and coordinated sharing of objects across homogeneous network.PANDA runtime is based on a very small operating system kernel which supports distributed applications written in C++.
