LPARX provides efficient run-time support for dynamic, non-uniform scientific calculations running on MIMD distributed memory architectures. It extends HPF's data decomposition model to provide support for dynamic, block irregular data structures. LPARX represents data decompositions as first-class objects and expresses data dependencies in a manner which is logically independent of data decomposition and problem dimension. LPARX applications are portable across a diversity of MIMD machines. We have implemented a number of applications in LPARX-including a 3D particle calculation and 2D and 3D adaptive multigrid solvers-which could not have been efficiently implemented in HPF.
