✦ Synopsis

This paper discusses the software challenges that must be met if we are to effectively use the massively parallel supercomputers of the future. Focusing on Fortran, the discussion includes an assessment of the prospects for fully automatic parallelization of conventional programs and presents the principal features needed in software environments for parallel programming.

It is generally held that benchmark software for supercomputers has to be more complex than that used for mainframes because of the parallel/vector processing capabilities available on supercomputers. In addition, such benchmark software measure only CPU performance (although some may be defined to
