Welcome to the CAPIO documentation

CAPIO (Cross-Application Programmable I/O), is a middleware aimed at improving workflow execution times in two ways:

By injecting streaming capabilities to workflow steps without changing the application codebase
And by allowing for faster burst write speeds

It has been proven to work with C/C++ binaries, Fortran Binaries, JAVA, python and bash.

The documentation is split in two sections: The documentation for the coordination language CAPIO-CL, and the documentation for the CAPIO middleware, the reference implementation of the CAPIO-CL language.
