Porting existing applications to new high performance parallel and distributed computing platforms is a challenging task. Ideally, a user develops a sequential version of the application, leaving the task of porting the code to parallelization tools and compilers. Due to the simplicity of programming shared-memory multiprocessors, compiler developers have provided various facilities to allow the users to exploit parallelism. Native compilers on SIG Origin2000 support multiprocessing directives to allow users to exploit loop-level parallelism in their programs. additionally, supporting tools can accomplish this process atomatically . We experimented with these compiler directives and supporting tools can accomplish this process atomatically. We experimented with these compile redirectives and supporting tools by parallelizing sequential implementation of NAS benchmarks. Results reported in this paper indicate that with minimal effort, the performance gain is comparable with the hand-parallelized, carefully optimized, message-passing implementations of the same benchmarks. 收起
