FORCE: (parallel programming language). Interim report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7123052

The FORCE is a parallel programming language and methodology based on the shared memory multiprocessor model of computation. It is an extension to Fortran which allows a user to write a parallel program that is independent of the number of processes executing it and in which the management of processes is suppressed. Multiple instruction streams are managed as a group by operations that synchronize them and allocate work. The system is implemented on several machines as a macro preprocessor which expands FORCE programs into Fortran code for the host system.
