Abstract:
High performance computers utilize lots of parallelism at different levels of vectorization, thread parallelism, message-passing between distributed memory architectures and even function off-loading by hardware accelerators. Large scale numerical simulations often offer lots of parallelism, which may be difficult to express in a high level programming language. A common abstract parallel programming style for numerical applications is proposed, which can be translated automatically into parallel code for one or a combination of common programming styles for these parallel architectures.
