Abstract

We describe the design of a compilation system, which translates Fortran programs automatically into explicitly parallel programs for a massively parallel architecture. Such a compiler must automatically generate data distributions and derive program transformation strategies based on a combination of heuristics and analysis features. Programs are subjected to an iterative tuning process, involving three major components: a restructuring system, a performance analysts subsystem, and a parallelization support environment. Many of the components in this environment have already been implemented in the framework of the Vienna Fortran compilation system.
