Abstract

pC++ is a language extension to C++ designed to allow programmers to compose 'concurrent aggregate' collection classes which can be aligned and distributed over the memory hierarchy of a parallel machine in a manner modeled on the High Performance Fortran Forum (HPFF) directives for Fortran 90. The first version of the compiler is a preprocessor which generates Single Program Multiple Data (SPMD) C++ code. In the paper the authors describe the implementation of the runtime system, which provides the concurrency and communication primitives between objects in a distributed collection. To illustrate the behavior of the runtime system we include a description and performance results of four benchmark programs.
