Parallel Compiler Runtime Consortium

Collaborating Institutions

• Northeast Parallel Architectures Center at Syracuse University, coordinating the project and responsible for development of a major contribution to the runtime (emphasisizing regular communication patterns and collective computation operations) and demonstration of an experimental HPF translator exploiting the runtime.
• University of Maryland, responsible for runtime support, especially for irregular array mappings and communication patterns, and authors of the METACHAOS package for interfacing between the various runtime components developed in the project.
• Indiana University, contributing the Tulip runtime of pC++, the data-parallel component of the HPC++ consortium.
• University of Rochester, investigating the utility of the new runtime systems for distributed shared-memory architectures.
• University of Texas, Austin, developing the DAGH system for adaptive grid problems.
• Cooperating Systems Corporation, providing help in software quality assurance and documentation.
• Rice University, studying compiler requirements.
• University of Florida, providing advanced algorithms for collective computations operations such as the combining scatter operation.
