The PHENIX collaboration is using PDSF for software development of the detector sub-systems.
NA49
    Large Acceptance Hadron Detector for an Investigation of Pb-induced Reactions at the CERN SPS
PDSF Contact: Peter Jacobs - PMJacobs@lbl.gov
The NA49 collaboration will be using PDSF in the development Event-by-Event physics analysis.
STAR - Solenoidal Tracker At RHIC
