Foil 49 Any Complete Programming Environment Must Handle

From HPCC Software Technologies Fall 96 -- Overview and HPF Delivered Lectures of CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- 26 September 96. by Geoffrey C. Fox
1 Data Parallelism
  • Completely handled in extended HPF?
2 Task Parallelism
  • Partially handled in (extended) HPF? e.g.
    • Embarrassingly Parallel Task Parallelism OK
    • Event Driven Simulations not possible
3 Metaproblems (task parallelism where each component data parallel)
  • Should we handle directly by; say, adding Fortran-M Syntax to HPF
  • or embed HPF in HPC++, Fortran-M (viewed as "outside" HPF), AVS ....
  • Metaproblems are discussed in Parallel Computing Works
