Foil 6 Parallelism in HPF

From HPFtutorial CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- Fall Semester 95. by Geoffrey C. Fox(Tomasz Haupt)


Parallelism in HPF is expressed explicitly
  • Fortran 90 array expressions and assignments (including WHERE)
  • Array intrinsics
  • FORALL statement and construct
  • INDEPENDENT assertion on DO loops
Compiler may choose not to exploit information about parallelism
Compiler may detect parallelism in sequential code
