Foil 35 Implementation of the HPF 1 Library

From DoD HPF Training -- 3. Parallel Constructs in HPF DoD Training and Others -- 1995-98. by Chuck Koelbel -- Rice University


1 Functions were added to the library because
  • They are useful
  • They can be implemented in parallel on all (known) machines
  • The optimal implementation is complex or machine-dependent
2 Therefore, HPF puts the onus on the vendors to provide the best possible implementation
  • Can be implemented by subroutine library or in-line expansion
  • Should use the best known algorithms for reduction, prefix operations, etc.
