Abstract :
CFTP is a software tool designed to aid programmers in hand-parallelizing sequential ANSI Fortran 77 or CFT code. It assists the programmer by providing information about the code which the programmer must have in order to determine where parallel execution is safe and where it is not. CFTP collects information regarding the input code´s usage of its variables. In doing so it builds a call graph, and performs intra- and interprocedural def-use, use-def, and aliasing analysis. CFTP makes the results of these different forms of analysis directly available to the user.<>
