Exploiting parallelism in multidisciplinary applications using Opus
Matthew Haines, Brian Hess, Piyush Mehrotra · PPSC · 1995
Opus is a set of Fortran language extensions that provides shared data abstractions (SDAs) as a method for communication and synchronization among coarse-grain data parallel tasks. In this paper we focus on a simplified multidisciplinary optimization application (the design of a full aircraft configuration) and present a version of the code using the features of Opus. We also briefly describe the runtime system needed to support Opus.
