Abstract:Parallel computing techniques have been supported by programming languages in two major ways: either library-based APIs or extended language constructs. Library-based features are portable and offer fine-grained control on parallelization details. However, they rely on individual programmer skills; thus, they may lead to inconsistent implementations and considerable code restructurings. On the contrary, language constructs promote environments that largely conceal the details of parallel programming techniques… Show more
