High performance development for high end computing with python language wrapper (plw

This paper presents a design and implementation of a sys-tem that leverages interactive scripting environment to the needs of scientific computing. The system allows seamless translation of high level script codes to highly optimized native language executables that can be ported to parallel systems with high performance hardware and potential lack of the scripting language interpreter. Performance results are given to show various usage scenarios that dif-fer in terms of invested programmer’s effort and resulting performance gains. Key words: Phython compilation, static typing, high per-formance parallel computing, rapid application develop-ment, scripting languages
