Description:
Parallel computers are powerful too Is for scientific and industrial research. To allow easier and portable program development for parallel systems, High Performance Fortran and extensions of C have been developed in the past few years. But, although work on implementing these languages has been going on for some time, compiler developers still face a lot of challenges. Moreover, the languages have 10 be extended to support a broader spectrum of applications. Since research in parallel computing is focused to a large extend on scientific applications, architectures, programming models, languages, and tools for nonscientific applications will require much more attention in the future. This workshop is the sixth of aseries of workshops which were held at Oxford, Paris, Vienna, Delft, and Malaga. The goal of these workshops is to bring together experts in the field of compiling for parallel computers to discuss the state-of-the-art and to exchange ideas for future developments. This workshop has participants from nine countries. The thirty-three presentations are covering compilation techniques for High Performance Fortran, new language constructs for unstructured and multidisciplinary applications, language and tool support for shared virtual memory, program analysis and optimization techniques, parallel models, and loop transformation teclmiques based on a strong theoretical framework. We would like to thank the board of directors of the Research Centre Jülich for sponsoring the workshop and Prof. Hoßfeld, the director of the Central Institute of Applied Mathematics, for accepting the invitation to arrange the workshop in Aachen and for giving us any support we needed in the local organization. Without the experience and the extensive support of the staff of the Central Institute of Applied Mathematics and of the Conference Service of the Research Centre Jülich during the preparation of the workshop, the organization would have been a full-time job for us.
