ftp://ftp.mcs.anl.gov/pub/nexus/nexus_v2.0.tar.Z Nexus <abstract> Nexus is a runtime system integrating lightweight threads and communication. Nexus supports multiple threads of control, dynamic processor acquisition, dynamic address space creation, a global memory model via interprocessor references, and asynchronous events. Nexus is intended primarily as a compiler target for languages supporting task-parallel and mixed data- and task-parallel execution; it is currently targetted by compilers for the parallel languages CC++ and Fortran M. Nexus is a joint project of Argonne National Laboratory and the California Institue of Technology. <contact>nexus@mcs.anl.gov <description><url>http://www.mcs.anl.gov/nexus/index.html</url> <keywords>parallel runtime system; task parallelism; data parallelism <category>ppt-rts </urc>
