Languages Programming Parallel Computing

This category contains information about parallel programming languages, including extensions to existing sequential languages as well as completely new languages. Message-passing libraries that allow writing parallel programs in a normally sequential language are listed in Computers/Parallel_Computing/Programming.

• PARSEC - PARallel Simulation Environment for Complex systems. C-based simulation language for sequential and parallel execution of discrete-event simulation models. Online technical support, manuals, source code. Replaced Maisie language.
  
• Parallaxis-III - Structured language for data-parallel programming (SIMD systems), based on sequential Modula-2, extended. Source code, binaries, sample code, documents.
  
• JavaParty - A minimal extension to Java easing distributed parallel programming of cluster computers. A source code transformation automatically generates a distributed pure Java program based on RMI or KaRMI.
  
• Orca - Language for parallel programming on distributed systems, based on the shared data-object model, a portable form of object-based distributed shared memory. Papers and manual.
  
• Maisie - C-based simulation language that can be used for sequential and parallel execution of discrete-event simulation models. Papers, source code, sample models. Replaced by PARSEC language.
  
• Z++ - An extension of C++ to platform-free distributed computing. It enhances C++ with invariants, threading, database, GUI and conponent-oriented design. Z++ virtual processor supports the entire language on many platforms.
  
• Jade - Jade is a parallel extension to C that allows transparent access to shared memory. Papers, manual, and source code.

• Unified Parallel C at George Washington University - Community site: projects, news, FAQ, documents, publications, tutorials, forum, mail list, work groups, events, downloads.
  
• Mesham - By using type based parallelism the programmer can write very efficient, simple, code targeted at Grids, Clusters or SMPs in this language. Full online documentation and source/binaries available for download.
  
• NESL - A functional parallel language. Tutorial, source code, algorithm library, animations, and reference manual.
  
• Acute - Experimental high-level language for distributed computing, focus: typing, naming, version change; designed, formally specified, implemented; extends OCaml core to support distributed development, deployment, execution, type-safe interaction between separ
  
• Unified Parallel C: UPC - Extensions to C to support distinctions between local and shared data structures, and pointers to them; for high performance computing on large-scale parallel machines, uniform programming model for shared and distributed memory.
