About this technology

Overview

The innovation is a software logging facility that is tailored to the needs of parallel Fortran software. The facility greatly simplifies the process of logging routine messages within a scientific simulation across multiple processes in a manner that is configurable at run time. Messages can be annotated with different severity levels such that low-level diagnostic information can be generally suppressed except when desired.
