An Objected-Oriented Approach to Scientific Computing on Supercomputers

使用面向对象的编程语言可以极大地 简化了软件的调试和维护。 在 特别是，C++编程语言非常适合 科学计算 该提案将对一个C++ 理论物理应用程序的实现（计算 使用少体系统的光阵面哈密顿动力学）和 将其相对性能与相同的Fortran代码进行比较 问题. 此外， 应用程序代码将链接到C++程序。 工作 将在Unix工作站和Cray Y-MP/832上完成 超级计算机

The use of object oriented programming languages can greatly simplify the debugging and maintenance of software. In particular, the C++ programming language is well suited for scientific computation. This proposal will benchmark a C++ implementation of a theoretical physics application (calculations using light front Hamiltonian dynamics of few body systems) and compare its relative performance to a Fortran code of the same problem. In addition library codes necessary for the applications codes will be linked to the C++ program. The work will be done on a Unix workstation and a Cray Y-MP/832 supercomputer.
