<language> (HPF) A data parallel language extension to
Fortran 90 which provides a portable programming interface
for a wide variety of target platforms. The original HPF
language specification was produced by the High Performance
Fortran Forum, a broad consortium of industry and academia,
which met regularly throughout 1992 and early 1993. HPF
compilers are now available on most commonly-used computing
systems, and users are beginning to gain first hand experience
with this language. The Forum has continued to meet in order
to address advanced topics.
HPF+ at Vienna.
