Parallel Programming with Control Abstraction
Parallel Programming with Control Abstraction. Lawrence A. Crowl and Thomas J. LeBlanc. ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems 16(3): 524-576, May 1994
Since control abstraction separates the definition of a construct from its implementation, a construct may have several different implementations, each exploiting a different subset of the parallelism admitted by the construct. By selecting an implementation for each control construct using annotations, a programmer can vary the parallelism in a program to best exploit the underlying hardware without otherwise changing the source code. This approach produces programs that exhibit most of the potential parallelism in an algorithm, and whose performance can be tuned simply by choosing among the various implementations for the control constructs in use. There were some queries regarding parallel programming constructs, so this paper may be of interest. |
