Foil 28 What can current HPF Language Surely do?

From Programming Paradigms B CRPC/MCNC Workshop -- April 10-13 1995. by Geoffrey C. Fox
Synchronous Problems where
Data Structure is an array manipulated
  • by intrinsic ( shift, multiply, add, sum .... )
  • and forall
Regular grid partial differential equation solvers
  • e.g. finite difference
"Crystalline" (regular) particle dynamics or Monte Carlo
  • QCD
  • Spin Systems
These above two are local or nearest neighbor - use CSHIFT
Full matrix Algorithms (may need MIMD for good performance)
FFT
Low Level Image Processing
  • SIMD architecture fine
