Organization of this Document

Section , this section, presents an overview of HPF.

Section sets out some basics of HPF, including:

Section describes the facilities for data partitioning in HPF. These include:

Section describes the explicitly parallel statement types in HPF. These include:

Section describes new standard functions available in HPF. These include:

Section describes extrinsic procedures in HPF, particularly the EXTRINSIC procedure interface. The material in Annex builds on this interface.

Section describes the treatment of sequence and storage association in HPF. This includes:

Section describes Subset HPF, which may be implemented more quickly than full HPF. This includes:

Annex describes a binding for a local execution model for use as an EXTRINSIC option. The model implements the Single Program Multiple Data programming paradigm, which has wide (but not universal) applicability.

Annex collects the grammar and syntactic constraints for HPF defined in the main text of this document.

Annex cross-references the BNF terminals and nonterminals defined and used in this document.

The Bibliography provides references to various HPF sources:
