OpenMP meetings

Recent OpenMP meetings are listed here:

  • WOMPAT 2001 Workshop on OpenMP Applications and Tools
  • WOMPEI International Workshop on OpenMP
  • EWOMPAT 2000 Second European Workshop on OpenMP
  • WOMPAT2000 Workshop on OpenMP Applications and Tools

Shared Memory Compiler Development

Historically software vendors and research groups developed their own OpenMP enabled compilers:

  • GUIDE™ from KAI Software, a division of Intel Americas, Inc. (Later acquired by Inel Corporation)
  • Intel Fortran Compiler™ V5.0, Intel Americas, Inc.
  • PGF77 and PGF90 from the Portland Group (http://www.pgroup.com)
  • The NANOS compiler.
  • POLARIS project at Perdue
  • CAPTools in the UK

Distributed Shared Memory Compiler Development

Several proposal have been put forward (or implemented) for extensions to OpenMP for combinations of shared and distributed memory systems.

  • DVSM™: (alpha product) for distributed virtual shared memory extensions to OpenMP from KAI Software, a division of Intel Americas, Inc. (now part of Intel Software offerings)
  • OMNI OpenMP compiler in Japan
Software Vendor Examples
Company (and URL) Parallel HPC product
Etnus, Inc. https://totalview.io/ TotalView™ portable multiple processor and multi-thread parallel debug tool with GUI interface
KAI Software, a division of Intel Americas, Inc.
(now part of the Intel Corporation)
  • Intel Thread Checker™ for OpenMP code validation and performance
  • DVSM™ : (alpha product) for distributed virtual shared memory extensions to OpenMP
  • ASCI PathForward Ultrascale Tools Initiative RTS – Parallel Systems Performance Project (see Pallas, below)
Pallas GmbH
(now part of the Intel Corporation)
  • Intel Trace Collector� and Intel Trace Analyzer� for tracing performance of MPI applications
  • Teams with KAI on the ASCI project to develop scalable performance tools for shared memory (SMP) and distributed memory (DMP) systems. (This tool will report parallel performance uniformly, and track standards of both SMP and DMP language extensions in mixed-mode paradigms).

Intel Americas, Inc. (http://www.intel.com)

The Portland Group (now an NVidia company) (http://www.pgroup.com)

 Parallel enabled Fortran 77/90/95 and C compilers for the Linux operating system.
Simulog, Cleanscape Static code analysis, debugging tools, F77 to F90/95 translators, etc.
