Applications using the WRAPPER are not written to target just one
particular machine (for example an IBM SP2) or just one particular family or
class of machines (for example Parallel Vector Processor Systems). Instead the
WRAPPER provides applications with an
abstract machine model. The machine model is very general, however, it can
easily be specialized to fit, in a computationally efficient manner, any
computer architecture currently available to the scientific computing community.
