Foil 97 Fundamental Parallelism Assumption in HPF

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
An operation on two or more data object is likely to be carried out much faster if they all reside in the same processor

it may be possible to carry out many such operations concurrently if they can be performed on different processors
  • data parallelism
