Since the beginning of computing, the use of computers to simulate physical phenomena has been a driving force to advance the field of computing. Computational scientists demand more computational power and more facility to implement applications. The conventional library interface does not hide the complexity of the underlying parallel architectures and their programming paradigms from users. Our investigation group is currently implementing an environment for solving partial differential equations (PDEs). Using this high-level tool the user can easily develop parallel applications for solving PDEs based problems using multigrid techniques without knowledge on the underlying computer hardware or software. This paper provides the first steps towards the creation of the environment. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
