/**
  \defgroup proofkernel PROOF kernel Libraries
  \ingroup proof

  The PROOF kernel libraries (libProof, libProofPlayer, libProofDraw) contain the classes defining
  the kernel of the PROOF facility, i.e. the protocol and the utilities to steer data processing
  and handling of results. 

*/

/** \class TProof
\ingroup proofkernel

This class controls a Parallel ROOT Facility, PROOF, cluster.
It fires the worker servers, it keeps track of how many workers are
running, it keeps track of the workers running status, it broadcasts
messages to all workers, it collects results, etc.
