The habanero multicore software research project

Abstract

Multiple programming models are emerging to address an increased need for dynamic task parallelism in multicore shared-memory multiprocessors. This poster describes the main components of Rice University's Habanero Multicore Software Research Project, which proposes a new approach to multicore software enablement based on a two-level programming model consisting of a higher-level coordination language for domain experts and a lower-level parallel language for programming experts.
