HPCN Europe 98
RAI Conference Center Amsterdam, April 21-23, 1998
HPF+ Workshop

Abstract

The Esprit project n. 21033, "HPF+: Optimizing HPF for Advanced Applications" aims to improve the HPF and related compiler technology by extending the functionality of the language and developing optimizing compilation strategies, depending on the requirements of a set of advanced application codes. As its final dissemination activity, the HPF+ project organizes the International Workshop on HPF+ which is hosted by the HPCN98 Conference on April 23, 1998. The workshop aims are mainly to disseminate the project results obtained and bring together key persons working in the area of High Performance Fortran. In particular, in the workshop will be presented experiences in coding advanced applications in HPF+, the language extensions and the compilation techniques as well as performance issues. Invited talks will be also given on a variety of subjects by outstanding experts in the field.
