Abstract :
An extension of Pascal for single instruction multiple data (SIMD) processing is proposed. The language is architecture independent and model independent. An attempt is made to provide the programmer with greater power for exploiting the interconnection network pattern using several routing and masking schemes. The desirable features of Pascal are carried over in this extension of Pascal. The authors have analyzed the power of the new constructs and the facilities through numerous case studies
