Parallel Program Modeling and Evaluation

为并行分布式计算机系统开发大型程序是 至少和为更传统的应用程序开发软件一样困难。 顺序系统 增加的困难在于所需的创新 来利用处理器的多样性。 大量努力 已扩展到建立运营和网络，以便他们 有利于分布式编程和新的编程语言 已经被建立来增加表达计算， 支持系统的结构优势。 程序设计师做的 没有足够的工具来帮助他们创建和评估 并行分布式计算 他们也缺乏方便的方式， 描述、建模和可视化这些计算。 的目标 研究是研究支持有序探索的机制， 并行程序结构，并提供不同数量的 设计过程中的反馈评估。

Developing large programs for parallel, distributed computer systems is at least as difficult as developing software for more traditional sequential systems. The added difficulty is in the innovation required to exploit the multiplicity of processors. Considerable effort has been expended to build operating and networks so that they are conducive to distributed programming, and new programming languages have been built to increase the expressive computation so that it takes advantage of the structure of the support system. Program designers do not have adequate tools to assist them in creating and evaluating parallel, distributed computations. They also lack convenient ways to describe, model and visualize these computations. The goal of the research is to study mechanism that support the orderly exploration of parallel program structures, and which provide varying amounts of feedback evaluation during that design process.
