Foil 29 Any Complete Programming Environment Must Handle

From HPCC Current Status: Software Trip to China -- July 12-28,96. by Geoffrey Fox * See also color IMAGE
Data Parallelism
  • Completely handled in extended HPF?
Task Parallelism
  • Partially handled in (extended) HPF? e.g.
    • Embarrassingly Parallel Task Parallelism OK
    • Event Driven Simulations not possible
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
