The NetStream library is a communication tool aimed at
helping programmers of parallel program to exchange information through a
network, whether LAN or WAN. Also, two levels of utilization are possible,
namely basic services for novice users and advanced ones for experienced
programmers.
Abstraction, flexibility, and easy interface are some of the
more important goals that influenced the design of
NetStream. The interface and operations are continuously
being improved resulting in new versions of this software.
