Abstract

This paper provides a basic description of a FORTRAN system for the ILLIAC IV. In this context “FORTRAN system” means exactly what one would expect — a user familiar with a different system will find no major surprises when he uses ILLIAC FORTRAN. The language is the same — a dialect of ANSI standard FORTRAN. The processors are the same — a compiler which generates relocatable binary files from FORTRAN source text, a link editor which collects and joins separately compiled program pieces into a single module, a loader which loads and relocates a single module into ILLIAC memory, a library of functions, and an I/O subsystem which supports formatted and unformatted FORTRAN I/O.
