SIGMA II: A Tool Kit for Building Parallelizing Compilers and Performance Analysis Systems

[[abstract]]©SIGMA II is a system for building program transformation tools. Its intended use is for building source to source program parallelization restructurers and performance analysis instrumentation tools for application written in FORTRAN, FORTRAN90, C, C++ and certain extensions of these languages including PCF FORTRAN, Cedar FORTRAN, and pC++. SIGMA II contains an interprocedural analysis system and symbolic data dependence procedures. The interface to SIGMA is through a system of over 100 functions which provide the tool builder with complete access to the syntax and semantics of user programs. In addition to supporting language extensions, SIGMA II supports an extensive FORTRAN and C annotation system to aid in allowing users to place assertions in the code that can direct the parallelization processes[[department]]資訊工程學
