Model of the allocation of data objects to processor memories is that there is a two-level mapping of data objects to abstract processors. Data objects (typically array elements) are first aligned with an abstract indexing space called a template; a template is then distributed onto a recilinear arrangement of abstract processors. The implementation then uses the same number, or perhaps some smaller number, of physical processors to implement these abstract processors. This mapping of
abstract processors to physical processors is implementation dependent.
