Hi,I got the question of parallel i/o from our customer.
I think the current version of Digital's HPF & PSE dose not have
the parallel i/o capability. Read/Write operations are done on only peer 0.
MasPar's parallel fortran90 or C had those capability.
How about this capability or plan to introduce to digital's HPF.
And are there the parallel i/o in HPF standard specification ?(v1.* or v2.* )
For example, parallel i/o is good performance for read/write some large
temporary files using the distributed memory - i/o module -disk systems.
!hpf$ distribute a(block)
:
real a(1000)
:
read(10,*) a
best regards,

Parallel I/O to temporary files is easy for users to write themselves. We
have
included a sample application in the /usr/examples/hpf directory that does
exactly that.
Language and runtime support for parallel I/O is being discussed by the HPF
Forum and other standards bodies, but no consensus has been reached on the
right
way to do it. We are following those efforts, as we know that this is
important
for users.
Can you ask the customer what kind of parallel I/O support they would like to
see?

Thank you, Re:1.
We hope the implementation of language and runtime parallel i/o in
our fortran for future, if hpf forum take the consensus of them.
