High-level concepts for parallel programming
The execution time needed for complex tasks such as the numerical solution of partial differential equations is often reduced by introducing parallelism.
Developing parallel software is a tedious and error-prone process, in particular, if it is based on low-level concepts such as message passing, which is the state of the art for parallel programming. We intend to simplify the development of parallel software by offering predefined patterns for parallel programming, so-called algorithmic skeletons, to the programmer.
Now efficient parallel software can easily be developed by simply using these skeletons. Skeletons are provided as polymorphic higher-order functions, which are efficiently implemented on the considered parallel machine.
