We have proposed an approach which uses client native classes for "compiler runtime" or linkage to server and follows an HPF style with an interpreted front-end like Matlab or APL or "host" programming model as in *LISP on CM-2
|
e.g. A = HParray.matmul(B,C)
-
Technically Generalizes HPF Interpreter we prototyped in 1993
-
Interpreters and objects are great as long as "coarse-grain" and do not represent necessarily bad performance
-
i.e. access arrays not array-elements
|
This leads to Java wrappers invoked by HPF-style Java(Script) interpreter which interfaces to native HPF/C++/Java server implementations.
-
e.g. access HPF array Ahpf elements from Java with wrapper object A
-
HParray A = new HParrayConstructor("Ahpf");
-
A.grabelement(1,100)
