9307315 Schnabel This project is concerned with making massively parallel MIMD computers more usable and used by application scientists and engineers. It now seems clear that massively parallel, distributed memory MIMD machines either are or soon will be the most powerful supercomputers available, in terms of memory and speed. So far, however, their use by applications scientists has been seriously hampered by the lack of easy-to-use, efficient, and portable programming support. It has also been hampered by the natural reluctance of scientists and engineers to move their applications to a new computing environment. This proposal addressed both of these problems, through the symbiotic development of language, compiler, and run-time support for parallel scientific programming, along with the development of substantial parallel scientific applications in computational fluid dynamics and optimization.

9307315 Schnabel这个项目关注的是使大规模并行MIMD计算机更可用和应用科学家和工程师使用。 现在看来很清楚，大规模并行、分布式内存的MIMD机器无论是在内存还是速度方面，都是或者很快就会成为最强大的超级计算机。 然而，到目前为止，由于缺乏易用、高效和可移植的编程支持，应用科学家对它们的使用受到了严重阻碍。 科学家和工程师自然不愿意将他们的应用程序转移到新的计算环境，这也阻碍了它的发展。 这个建议解决了这两个问题，通过共生发展的语言，编译器和运行时支持并行科学编程沿着大量的并行计算流体动力学和优化科学应用的发展。
