GSoC Idea: Tcl Bidings to Trilinos

Areas mathematics, physics, numerical analysis, interface design
Good if student knows C (essential), numerical analysis (useful)
Priority Medium
Difficulty Medium
Benefits to the student Designing a useable interface for a large set of libraries, managing data structures
Benefits to Tcl Access to a large collection of mathematical-physical algorithms
Mentor Arjen Markus

Project Description

The project would provide Tcl programmers interested in modelling physical phenomena or solving partial differential equations in general access to a large collection of algorithms. As the Trilinos project defines and controls the data structures to be used, it is important to design an interface that takes advantage of that and at the same time feels Tclish.
