✦ Synopsis

We describe the application of pD, a small para-functional language that we developed as a high-level programming interface for the parallel computer algebra package PACLIB. pD provides several facilities to express parallel algorithms in a flexible way on different levels of abstraction. The compiler translates a pD module into statically typed parallel C code with explicit task creation and synchronization constructs. This target code can be linked with the PACLIB kernel, the multi-processor runtime system of the computer algebra library SACLIB. The parallelization of several computer algebra algorithms on a shared memory multi-processor demonstrates the elegance and efficiency of this approach.

A computer program package has been constructed for use in patient survival analyses for chronic diseases based on aggregated data. The central concept of the analyses -the relative survival rate -is the ratio of the observed survival rate of the patients to the survival rate expected in a group in

They have many applicati
