| Summary: | Many problems require parallel solutions and implementations and how to extract and specify parallelism has been the focus of Research during the last few decades. While there has been a significant progress in terms of (a)automatically deriving implicit parallelism from functional and logic programs, (b) using parallelizing compilers to extract parallelism from serial programs written in Fortran or C mainly by parallelizing loop constructs and (c) evolution of standards such as Message Passing Interface (MPI) to allow a Fortran or C programmer to decompose a problem into a parallel solution, the parallel computing problem is still not solved completely. With the emergence of parallel computing architectures based on multi-core chips, there is a need to rewrite existing software and also develop future software so that parallelism available at the hardware level is fully exploited. |
