	Architecture Neutral Distribution Format - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Architecture Neutral Distribution Format (ANDF) is a technology allowing common "shrink wrapped" binary application programs to be distributed for use on conformant Unix systems, each of which might run on different underlying hardware platforms.
		ANDF was defined by the Open Software Foundation.
		The technology of ANDF, chosen after an evaluation of competing approaches and implementations, was Ten15 Distribution Format, developed by the U.K. Defence Research Agency.

	ANDF installer using the HPcode-Plus compiler intermediate language - Patent 5280613
		The ANDF Installers 218 and 228, which reside on the target computer platforms 216 and 226, respectively, translate the compiler intermediate representation 212 to object code representations 222 and 232.
		The ANDF Installers 218, 228 must ensure that their memory allocation schemes are consistent with those of a compiler on the native computer platform 206.
		Since the ANDF Producer 208 cannot determine the result's data type, the result cannot be used immediately for an arithmetic operation which requires operands to be of the same type.

	ANDF Home Page
		In the first (ANDF Producer) stage, the application is transcribed into an ANDF format which utilises generalised declarations of the API calls used, together with generalised definitions of data types, constants, and so on.
		In the second (ANDF Installer) stage, the entities generated in the first stage are linked together and then mapped onto a concrete machine through the use of processor-specific libraries which implement the API calls and data formats.
		The ANDF standard is a result of a request for technology (RFT) by the Open Software Foundation (OSF) in May 1989.

	Practicality Issues
		ANDF is a language-independent and machine-independent intermediate language that came into existence largely to address the problem of commercial software distribution for multiple instruction set architectures; hence, some of its design goals address this source code access problem.
		Namely, ANDF attempts to preserve as much semantic information as possible so that the translator from ANDF format to the native platform binary format can perform as much optimization as possible, while still inhibiting reverse engineering (for examples, identifiers are replaced with unique tags).
		ANDF is complex because it attempts to solve many other problems as well, and its success in the marketplace seems questionable.

		This portable intermediate code then gets compiled by an architecture specific program on the host that runs the code.
		ANDF is freely available, including an ANDF backend for GCC, and runtimes/converters to efficiently run/convert ANDF objects on/to common platforms.
		However, ANDF is not very desirable because it's much too low-level and doesn't support GC.

	Action Semantics -- ASDs of Programming Languages
		When ready--and extended to the whole of Standard ML--it will make an interesting basis for comparison between action semantics and structural operational semantics, as the latter approach was used for defining Standard ML [MTH90].
		ANDF is an Architecture- and Language-Neutral Distribution Format developed by the Open Software Foundation (OSF) and other collaborators around the world.
		It was used by a group at the OSF Research Institute in Grenoble, for three purposes: to discuss refinement of the informal ANDF specifications, as an aid to develop a validation suite for ANDF, and as an aid to develop an interpreter.

	British compiler chosen by OSF as core technology for distribution format. \| Technology > Computer Software from ...
		ANDF is a compiler intermediate language technology that enables developers to develop and distribute applications in a format that can run on diverse open systems architectures.
		With ANDF, developers can package one version of an application and its required environment and be confident that it can be installed and run on all platforms supporting ANDF.
		The proliferation of ANDF will allow applications and hardware architectures to evolve independently of each other, thus making it possible to integrate a wide variety of hardware and software to best meet end user needs.

		The central concept is ANDF 4.0 (Architecture Neutral Distribution Format) which is a new XOpen standard.
		ANDF is a low-level abstraction of high-level languages, rich enough to model all known program constructs.
		The ANDF representation is then translated into assembly or machine code by a target-specific installer.

	Azerbaijan Democracy Monitor
		ANDF believes that the effective distribution of facts about the situation in Azerbaijan is the best means of integrating Azerbaijan into the world community and reinforcing the traditionally pro-Western and progressive stance of Azerbaijani society.
		ANDF has begun the publication of monthly brochure, Pro-Democracy Monitor called "Azerbaijan," in a separate Azeri and English edition.
		These hard copy publications are addressed the lack of unbiased political and social reporting within Azerbaijan, as well as the severe shortage of English language material available to the international community.

	Building a Better Bullet Train
		He explains that the OMI/SAFE project in particular was focused on proving the reliability and usefulness of existing ANDF (Architectural Neutral Distribution Format) technology, as ANDF is considered a pillar of the larger OMI strategy and the key to genuine software portability.
		In short, ANDF is the common, architecturally neutral representation of programs that have been coded in C, C++, Ada, Fortran, or Dylan.
		The ANDF technology was DDC-I’s SCORE® (Safety Critical, Object-oriented, Real-time Embedded), an integrated software development environment designed to address the need for combining reusable software components, written in different languages, targeting different microprocessors and developed on different development platforms.

	ARS \| Publication request: Effect of Plant Maturity and Conservation Methods on Fibre Charcteristics and Nutritive Value
		For ruminants and herbivorous animals, a logical definition of fibre is "those fractions of feed that are indigestible or slowly digesting and occupy space in the gastrointestinal tract." This definition describes the insoluble dietary fibre of feeds and, of the routine methods that are currently in use, only neutral detergent fibre (NDF) fits this definition.
		Because aNDF is the feed fraction with incomplete and variable digestibility, it is a key element of simple and complex summative equations used to estimate digestibility.
		Because aNDF is related to the filling effect and energy value of feeds, it is also related to intake regulation.

		It will be used to propose and discuss changes to the ANDF specifications, and to vote on them (whether these votes will be binding or just straw votes is not yet determined).
		I believe that ANDF is gaining momentum and I hope that this mailing list will provide the review and innovations that will help it to be a success.
		A "producer", which is similar to a compiler front-end, processes the source code and target-independent header files to produce the ANDF form of the application.

	ARS \| Publication request: Impact of Alfalfa Hay Neutral Detergent Fiber Concentration and Digestibility on Holstein ...
		Samples of 22 commercial hays were evaluated to identify four alfalfa hays that differed in aNDF and NDFD based on chemical, in vitro and NIRS analyses.
		Initial samples indicated the aNDF of hays low in fiber and high in digestibility (LFHD), low in fiber and digestibility (LFLD), high in fiber and digestibility (HFHD) and high in fiber and low in digestibility (HFLD) were 37.2, 36.4, 41.7 and 40.8 %, respectively.
		The 4 to 5 %-unit difference between high and low aNDF and NDFD was similar between locations and among bale core and experimental composite samples.

		The foundations of the ANDF technology behind SCORE were originally built for use with C by the Defense Evaluation and Research Agency in the UK.
		While ANDF installers now exist for many high-end processors, the crux of the OMI/SAFE project was the rapid development of an installer for the ST9 microcontroller.
		Schumacher's assertions about the cost-effectiveness of ANDF technology come at an opportune time for the entire industry, as the per chip cost of embedded software continues to trend upward.

		ANDF is not on Novell Inc's critical path for Unix Labs - important but not urgent is how one commentator described the new parent's commitment - but Novell is understood to be very interested in how ANDF could be used to distribute NetWare and NetWare applications across heterogeneous networks.
		The Defence Research Agency reckons it is now funding only 25% of the overall ANDF effort and has 19 engineers working on the project.
		The Defence Research Agency is reported to have a new ANDF portability kit up its sleeve, and says there are now product-quality ANDF installers available for Intel Corp 80386 and 80486 systems running Unix System V.4.2 and Santa Cruz Unix, with Solaris on Sparc and ICL Plc Unix System V.4.2 on Sparc versions coming.
