Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : chapel Version : 1.8.0 Upstream Author : Cray Inc. * URL : http://chapel.cray.com * License : BSD Programming Lang: C Description : imperative programming language with focus on parallelism
Chapel is an emerging parallel programming language whose design goal is to make parallel programming more productive, from high-end supercomputers to commodity clusters and multicore desktops and laptops. . Chapel supports a multithreaded execution model via high-level abstractions for data parallelism, task parallelism, concurrency, and nested parallelism. . Chapel supports global-view data aggregates with user-defined implementations, permitting operations on distributed data structures to be expressed in a natural manner. In contrast to many previous higher-level parallel languages, Chapel is designed around a multiresolution philosophy, permitting users to initially write very abstract code and then incrementally add more detail until they are as close to the machine as their needs require. Chapel supports code reuse and rapid prototyping via object-oriented design, type inference, and features for generic programming. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
