A semi-synchronous parallel programming language and the corresponding computing model are presented. The language is primarily designed for massively parallel fine grained applications such as cellular automata, finite element methods, partial differential equations or systolic algorithms. In this language it is assumed that the number of parallel processes in a program is much larger than the number of processors of the machine on which it is to be run. The computational model and the communication model of the language are presented. Finally, the language syntax and some performance measurements are presented.
