The High Performance Fortran Handbook (Scientific and Engineering Computation) - Tapa dura

Reseña del editor

High Performance Fortran (HPF) is a set of extensions to Fortran expressing parallel execution at a relatively high level. Five of the principal authors of HPF have teamed up here to write a tutorial for the language. There is an increasing need for a common parallel Fortran that can serve as a programming interface with the new parallel machines that are appearing on the market. While HPF does not solve all the problems of parallel programming, it does provide a portable, high-level expression for data-parallel algorithms that brings the convenience of sequential Fortran a step closer to today's complex parallel machines.
