Walt Disney PTEX is an open source software application maintained by Walt Disney Animation Studios. It is designed for use in post-production rendering. It allows for the storage of thousands of texture mappings within a single file. This particular software library is in many other software applications such as Pixar's RenderMan, giving it a large install base. A list of other applications that have incorporated PTEX is available here.
