Foil 36 CPS713 Case Study II) Computer Science Support for CFD and NR -- Portable Scalable Software Tools

From Master set for Overview of Case Studies of Computational Science CPSP713 Master for Overview -- Autumn Semester 1994. by Geoffrey C. Fox * See also color IMAGE

Portable means runs on (nearly) all of today's high performance (parallel) computers
Scalable means code written today will run on future high performance machines
  • These current and future machines include networks of workstations as well as integrated massively parallel machines
High Performance Fortran and C++ ; scalable data parallel support
Fortran-M and CC++ ; scalable support of task parallelism
AVS ; industry standard for visualization and software integration
PVM and MPI ; standard message passing support
ADIFOR ; differentiate Fortran code ; critical tool for optimization problems
Prototyping Software ; needs development of Interpreters and other tools
