1. Purpose
-Numerical simulations of Einstein's field equations provide unique insights
-into the physics of compact objects moving at relativistic speeds, and which
-are driven by strong gravitational interactions. Numerical relativity has
-played a key role to firmly establish gravitational wave astrophysics as a new
-field of research, and it is now paving the way to establish whether
-gravitational wave radiation emmitted from compact binary mergers is
-accompanied by electromagnetic and astro-particle counterparts. As numerical
-relativity continues to blend with routine gravitational wave data analyses to
-validate the discovery of gravitational wave transients, it is essential to
-develop open source tools to streamline these studies. Motivated by our own
-experience as users and developers of the open source, community software the
-Einstein Toolkit, we present an open source, python package
-to monitor the status and progress of numerical relativity simulations, and to
-post-process the data products of these simulations to compute the
-gravitational wave strain at future null infinity. This new software fills in a
-critical void in the arsenal of tools provided by the Einstein Toolkit
-Consortium to the numerical relativity community.

+POWER is an open source, python package to monitor the status and progress of
+numerical relativity simulations, and to post-process the data products of
+these simulations to compute the gravitational wave strain at future null
+infinity.
