KSR Fortran Compiler

abstract

The KSR Fortran compiler adheres to the ANSI Fortran 77 standard and
supports several popular extensions of the language present in industry
standard products.
Parallelism in KSR Fortran can be accomplished in one of two ways: (1)
through directives for parallel constructs for loops (via tiling), regions and
sections; the use of directives (rather than new language extensions)
allows programmers to maintain portability as well as as single version of
the source code for serial or parallel execution; and (2) through calls to the
low-level pthread subroutines (pthreads are based on the draft Posix
standard P1003.4a). The Fortran compiler employs a range of optimization
techniques and other extensions.
