Abstract

The programming of distributed memory architectures can be significantly facilitated by abstract, application-oriented models. The Promoter model reconciles generality and easiness of use by a new concept of high-level data parallelism that leads to distributed types with parallel operations. The model enables the user to describe the spatial structures for a wide spectrum of numerical and non-numerical application in a uniform algebraic formalism, so that the compiler can readily generate the optimized message-passing program.
