  abstract = {The article describes the design and implementation of parallel
  I/O in the object-oriented message-passing library TPO++. TPO++ is
  implemented on top of the message passing standard MPI and provides an
  object-oriented, type-safe and data centric interface to message-passing.
  Starting with version 2, the MPI standard defines primitives for parallel I/O
  called MPI-IO. Based on this layer, we have implemented an object-oriented
  parallel I/O interface in TPO++. The project is part of our efforts to apply
  object-oriented methods to the development of parallel physical simulations.
  We give a short introduction to our message-passing library and detail its
  extension to parallel I/O. Performance measurements between TPO++ and MPI are
  compared and discussed.}
