A Portable Parallel Programming Environment

Objective

The toolset will comprise:

a runtime system consisting of:

- an explicit message passing system
- event monitor
- debugger

cross development tools:

- a High Performance FORTRAN (HPF) transformations system
- an HPF symbolic debugger
- a post-mortem performance analyser
- a static estimator.

The toolset delivered will be portable. The portability layer for the cross-development tools is PCTE and the portability layer for the runtime system is PARMACS/MPI.

Several developers of scientific and engineering applications will evaluate the cross development environment, run-time environment and target platforms for robustness, adequacy, scalability and performance.
