Overview of Application Lessons for Runtime Support and Compilation Methods for Highly Adaptive Problems and Hierarchical Data Structures

We divide applications into five classes based on their problem architecture and four classes based on their runtime support character. We look at thirty three industrial and academic application areas indicating the type of runtime and programming environment support needed. This is a talk given by Geoffrey Fox at Arpa PI meeting in Albuquerque May 11 94, as part of a session organized by Joel Saltz on Runtime support and Compilation methods for Highly adaptive problems and Hierarchical Data Structures.
