  Automatic data layout for distributed-memory machines
Kennedy K., Kremer U. ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems 20(4): 869-916, 1998.  Type: Article

In High Performance Fortran and similar languages, the user isresponsible for adding explicit data distribution directives. Since thisis a major impediment to the widespread use of such languages, recentresearch has studied automatic d...

  The F programming language
Metcalf M., Reid J., Oxford University Press, Inc., New York, NY, 1996.  Type: Book (9780198500261)

What do you get if you remove the Fortran 66 language legacy from the Fortran 90 language? You get F, of course. F was developed by removing elements of the Fortran 90 language that make it irregular, dangerous, hard to learn, and pron...

  Influence of cross-interferences on blocked loops: a case study with matrix-vector multiply
Fricker C., Temam O., Jalby W. ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems 17(4): 561-575, 1995.  Type: Article

The cache behavior of “blocked” or “tiled” linear-algebra loops is investigated. Unlike previous work, this paper looks at the cache misses for fetches of one array due to interference from anoth...

  Compiling Fortran D for MIMD distributed-memory machines
Hiranandani S., Kennedy K., Tseng C. Communications of the ACM 35(8): 66-80, 1992.  Type: Article

Compiler techniques used or planned for the Fortran D compiler effort at Rice University are described. The Fortran D language is only briefly touched upon; the essential decomposition, align, and distribute directives ar...

  Parallel computer systems
Koskela R., Simmons M., ACM Press, New York, NY, 1990.  Type: Book (9780201509373)

Papers and summaries from the Workshop on Parallel Computer Systems: Performance Instrumentation and Visualization, held in May of 1989 in Santa Fe, New Mexico, are collected here. Most of the chapters describe current research in this...

  Solving problems on concurrent processors: vol. 2
Angus I., Fox G., Kim J., Walker D. (ed), Prentice-Hall, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ, 1990.  Type: Book (9780138297145)

This long book can be viewed as a supplement to volume 1 [1] or as a reference and handbook for those trying to benchmark and use large parallel computers, especially hypercube computers. Whereas volume 1 discusses general techniques o...

  Vector Pipelining, Chaining, and Speed on the IBM 3090 and Cray X-MP
Cheng H. Computer 22(9): 31-42, 44, 46, 1989.  Type: Article

Cheng attempts to characterize the performance of 24 simple vectorizable FORTRAN loops on two vector supercomputers. Cheng collected the data scientifically and compares the two machines. This paper is intended for several audiences: v...

  Using an architectural knowledge base to generate code for parallel computers
Terrano A., Dunn S., Peters J. (ed) Communications of the ACM 32(9): 1065-1072, 1989.  Type: Article

The authors present a reconfigurable compiler for distributed memory parallel computers. Like similar projects underway elsewhere, this compiler presents the user with a single address space programming model; the user also annotates t...

  Fault-Tolerant Array Processors Using Single-Track Switches
Kung S., Jean S., Chang C. IEEE Transactions on Computers 38(4): 501-514, 1989.  Type: Article

This paper describes a method to enhance the reliability of mesh-connected VLSI array processors that are incorporated on a single VLSI chip. The paper addresses two problems: fabrication-time faults and run-time faults. Both fault typ...

  The TI Advanced Scientific Computer
Cragon H., Watson W. Computer 22(1): 55-64, 1989.  Type: Article

This short retrospective paper is about one of the first vector supercomputers. The ASC project spanned two decades from its inception in 1966 to 1986 when the last ASC was turned off. This paper recollects some of the early design dec...
