  \section description Program description:
The Mantid application framework will provide a platform to supports
high-performance computing on neutron data. The framework will provide a set of
common services, algorithms and data objects that can be extended further by
specialised applications or directly by users if required. The main aims of the
project are as follows
<li>To provide a framework for Data Analysis that is not instrument or
technique/dependent. </li>
<li>To support multiple target platforms (Windows, Linux, Mac OS X).  </li>
<li>The framework must be easily extensible by Instruments Scientists/Users.
</li>
<li>The framework must be freely redistributable to visiting scientists.  </li>
<li>The framework should provide low-level functionalities for Scripting,
Visualization, Data transformation, Implementing Algorithms, Virtual Instrument
Geometry.  </li>
<li>This will be bound to Data reduction and analysis, not Instrument Control.
</li>
