摘要：

We describe a system that allows programmers to take advantage of both control and data parallelism through multiple intercommunicating data-parallel modules. This programming environment extends C-type stream 1/0 to include intermodule communication channels. The programmer writes each module as a separate data-parallel program, then develops a channel linker specification describing how to connect the modules together. A channel linker we have developed loads the separate modules on to the parallel machine and binds the communication channels together as specified. We present performance data that demonstrates a mixed control- and data-parallel solution can yield better performance than a strictly data-parallel solution. The system described currently runs on the Intel iWarp multicomputer.
