Abstract

In this paper we present a new language, called ParCeL-1, intended to make easier the implementation of computation-intensive applications on highly parallel MIMD architectures. The computational model of ParCeL-1 is object-oriented and synchronous. The current prototype is implemented on several multi-processor systems (Cray T3D, Intel Paragon, Telmat T-Node and workstation networks using PVM). Benchmarks are presented for several parallel programs.
