Foil 40 Problems with Adaptive Mesh Refinement in HPF

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