1 Synchronous: Parallel Fortran such as High Performance Fortran, CC++,Fortran-M, pC++, Crystal, APL..
2 Loosely Synchronous: Extensions of the above. (HPF+, HPC++)
3 Asynchronous: Web Technology, PCN, Linda, C++ object-oriented approaches....
  • Event Driven Simulation Packages where appropriate (written in say CC++)
4 Metaproblems: AVS, MOVIE, PCN, Linda, ADA, Fortran-M, CC++, .... controlling modules written in synchronous or loosely synchronous approach
5 Embarrassingly Parallel: Several approaches work?
  • AVS, MOVIE, PCN, Linda, Network Express, ISIS, PVM .......
6 Message Passing works in ALL cases!
