Abstract

Scientific computing has seen very rapid growth during its relatively young existence. The continued growth, however, is often impeded by neglecting the advancements of programming paradigms and compiler technologies. We present an approach which not only capitalizes on new developments, but also reuses already existing code bases using a Monte Carlo algorithm as an example.
