Abstract :
The authors report their design and implementation of a new self-scheduling parallel programming language, SELSYN-C. Their approach to the challenge of parallel programming language design and implementation is two-fold: (1) the design of simple extensions to C that are both easy to use, and useful for effective compilation, and (2) the design of efficient and effective scheduling strategies that can be automatically supported by a compiler and associated run-time environment
