Foil 31 Problems with Adaptive Mesh Refinement in HPF

From Overview of HPCC Applications at NPAC CRPC Annual Meeting -- May 14-17 1996. by Geoffrey Fox
1 Lack of support for pointers to distributed arrays (vendors promise that soon, however).
2 HPF-1 does not allow for distribution of components of derived types (tensor notation, tree structure of grids in AMR). Wait for HPF-2.
3 HPF-1 is too restrictive wrt data and computation distribution (irregular block, subset of processors). Wait for HPF-2.
